All I have to say is...I can't wait to see what these boys weigh! It's getting quite exhausting carrying them around the house! Unfortunately we don't see the pediatrician again for another month. Hoyt took off work Monday through Wednesday this week so we enjoyed getting outside and going to the park. Colin's helmet is doing OK. It's rubbing him a little too much on the left temporal lobe and we're keeping a close eye on it. Colin is so smiley. All you have to do is look at him and he starts smiling and laughing. He has a personality like Jack did when he was a baby. You have to work a little harder to get Andrew to smile, but once you get him going it's hard for him to stop. He is a cuddly little guy, too! Daniel is so sweet and patient. He loves to roll around on the floor. He is the observer and takes it all in! They have such distinct personalities!
Our triplets were born on December 27, 2008 at St. John's Mercy Medical Center. Each baby weighed 3 lbs. 4 oz. Andrew Martin was delivered first followed by Colin Bryan both at 8:09. Finally Daniel Louis arrived at 8:10. Colin was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect shortly after birth. Colin's heart surgery was on January 6, 2009 and his recovery has been nothing short of a miracle! Thanks for visiting our blog and reading about all 3 of our little miracles!

One more night until Hoyt gets home! He has been gone since Sunday because of work and I'm missing him....not just for the help either! Anyway, the babies have stayed pretty on schedule. Jack is playing/napping at Mums' house today so that helps, too. Andrew is rolling over all the time now from stomach to back, and then he prefers to just stay right there. Colin does it with a little help. Colin is doing OK adapting to his helmet. It will be 1 week this Friday and by tomorrow he will be in it at least 22 hours out of the day :( They are the most wonderful babies!

It's been awhile because all of my little people had their first colds last week and over the weekend. They are so much better today! They all had runny noses and coughs. Andrew and Colin were taken last Thursday for some measurements of their heads to see if they need corrective helmets and little Colin will get one for sure and Andrew looks to be OK as long as we keep him off the back of his head during the day. They are reaching for each other and love to look at each other. It is so cute to see them interact...especially when Jack joins in. They are eating vegetables twice a day along with a couple tablespoons of cereal. It's getting a little harder to feed them bottles because they are getting a little distracted when they hear or see something. They're also taking better naps. 1 1/2 hours in the morning and afternoon and then a short evening nap followed by 11 hours of sleep at night. So far I'm able to keep them in their own rooms during the day for naps.
