The babies were baptized yesterday at our church and it was a fun day. Afterwards we had lunch at mom and dad's house. The triplets did great and hardly cried. We all had a nice time! Last week Colin went to the eye doctor and he said that his prognosis is very favorable. There are no signs of near sightedness at this point and he doubts Colin will have any peripheral vision loss down the road. We're still praying that his vision continues to improve. He also saw the cardiologist this week and his echocardiogram report and EKG look good. His blood pressure was a little high so he would like us to come back within a couple of weeks just for a quick blood pressure check. We may have to put him on a little medicine for this, but we'll see. The doctor is to check to see if a kidney ultrasound was done while he was in the NICU and if not then we will go and have that done, too. The babies are taking 5 oz now about 5 times a day and going 6-8 hours between feedings at night. We feel much more rested now!
