June 21st, 2009

Hello everyone! It has been a little while since our last post, but life is quite hectic with triplets, go figure! Hahah! As I type this, Madison is drifting between being asleep and screaming her head off. Just a typical day, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

We had a pediatrician visit this past week and everyone is doing great. We actually don't have another pediatric visit for a whole month! As of last Thursday, June 18, (putting their corrected age at 13 days), the kids weights are:

Drew - 8lbs 11oz
Julia - 7lbs even
Madison - 7lbs 10oz

They are getting bigger every week, and it is great to watch them grow. They are starting to want to do other things like sleep, and so things like lying on the play mat, going for walks and even watching Baby Einstein are things they are starting to enjoy. They still prefer to sleep more than anything, but keeping them entertained when they stay awake is definitely a challenge.

Yesterday, the SD3 had another eye doctor visit and we got the news we wanted to hear. Their eyes have fully matured and now we don't have to go back for another 9 months! We are so happy that this milestone has been hit and we can focus on other things.
The babies are very good babies for the most part and just having to feed them every 4 hours is the most exhausting part. They have their bad days, but for the most part they eat, sleep, and are happy. They are definitely cute! They are so adorable, we just want to squeeze them all the time! Here are some new pictures. We hope you enjoy!

Hello everybody!!

It has been 10 whole days since we last blogged, sorry for the delay! This past week has seen the SD3's 3 month birthday and their actual DUE DATE! As of June 5th, they were officially newborns! It is crazy to think they were not supposed to be here all this time. Just doesn't seem possible.

They are getting big and growing well. I weighed Drew today using a scale and weighing myself first. He has not been weighed for a while, so I wanted to see. With his clothes and diaper on he weighs 8.5 pounds!! That's right, over 8 pounds! He looks and feels so much bigger than his sisters. Julia is still the smallest, now weighing over 6lbs. Madison is getting close to 7lbs as she was 6lbs 13oz on Friday. They are doing well and seem to enjoying home life.

They are definitely getting their own personalities. Drew is such a sweetheart. He does everything he is supposed to do, and is such a good little boy. Julia is a wild child. When she decides to be heard, the neighborhood knows about it. She is sweet and quiet most of the time except when she is hungry or wants attentions. Madison is definitely the baby. She is the fussiest of the three, and has figured out just how to get the most attention!!

They really are great babies and we are so lucky to have them.

Here are some new pictures. Hope you enjoy!!
