May 2nd, 2009

Hello everyone! Update time again. Boy, how time flies lately.
The babies are doing well, and getting bigger all the time. Their weights as of the 1st are:
Drew - 4lbs 5oz
Julia - 3lbs 14.6oz
Madison - 4lbs 1.6oz
As you can see, they are definitely packing it on, hahaah! Drew and Madison are taking all their feeds by bottle and Julia is right behind them, learning how to take a whole bottle. Here is some exciting news. If all goes well, we could see Drew and Madison come home by late next week! They are hitting all of the required milestones, and the doctors have asked us to bring in their car seats so that they can be ready to do their car seat test. Julia is close as well, and once she can take all her feedings by bottle, she will be ready to rock and roll too! We are really excited and nervous at the same time. We were not expecting to hear they would be coming home this soon, so we are going flat out getting everything in order. We are getting the nursery finished, getting all the supplies needed, and we even bought a mini-van this week!!! Everyone asks the million dollar question, "Are you ready?" Well, we think we are ready, at least we hope we are, hahah!
Nothing is definite in terms of their coming home, so we will keep preparing and take it one day at a time. We will keep everyone posted though as we get new information.
Here are a few pictures of the little ones. They are sooooooo cute and they are getting so much more active and alert. They are just so fun to be around!

That is such great news that you might have babies home next week!! Oh all that you have been through.. I am so happy for the both of you! And even if it isn't next week, soon enough all three of them will be home! You are amazing parents and I am so excited for you! I know the feeling of last minute shopping and making sure you have everything you need. If you need anything, please let me know. And I cannot wait to see pics of them on their homecoming! Congrats and best wishes to you all.

Hey guys....sorry I have not been in touch in forever but I have been reading your updates as much as I can. Life has been hectic here as you will soon see what life is like with triplets at home......it never stops. Glad to hear that everyone is doing so well and that they might be home soon. I will try my best to call you soon. If you ever need anything or have any questions though I am always a phone call away and 5 minutes down the road. Talk to you soon.

You guys will be just fine when they come home. They are so adorable! They really have all filled out, especially Madison who was the smallest from the start. It's so exciting that they are coming home soon. I heard they were supposed to come home today but it will be in a few more days instead. It's so exciting! All the best for such an exciting homecoming!
Love Brenda
