Andie~ my sweet girl

Andie~ or Andie-girl, as she is affectionately known, is my third child but the oldest of the triplets.

When I was pregnant with them, she was the baby at the bottom. She laid patiently in the same spot and watched as her 2 sisters fought to be on top. 8 years later and nothing has changed!

She was the last one to walk and had to wear these little corrective boots. Her two sisters would take her toys and try to run away. In order to get back at them she would drag herself over to them, ram them with her head, knock them to the ground and bite their backs!

She loves to read.

She is funny. Not just funny, she is hilarious! She will keep you laughing with her one liners from morning to night.

She has such a sweet spirit. When I buy new clothes (or anything) she always lets the other kids pick first and she will take what is left. Even if I insist that she picks first, she always "knows" what the others would pick and leaves those for them.

She is a great singer.

She loves to dance.

We call her the dog whisperer. She can take an unruly dog and force it to listen to her! She is fearless when it comes to animals.


She is loving.

She loves to cook~ she is always the first one in the kitchen to help me. When she is not cooking real food, she is playing restaurant with her play food.

She is the most laid-back of my children. She just goes with the flow. I love this about her.

She is the only triplet that has earrings.

When she was born and in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) she had an IV in her foot and her vain burst. She was burned from the inside out. God answered our prayers and it has not affected her mobility at all. She has a small faded scar on her foot but I love it. It reminds me of what a miracle it was that they were born so healthy.


After reading this blog Andie-girl said, "Awwww, Mom. If we ever run out of food and you have to have someone adopt me. After they this read this blog, they will really like me!"

I think all those threats of selling them on Ebay might be effecting them!

She makes me laugh, I need laughter in my life. I think I will keep her here with me....forever!
