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!

What fun we are having around here! The triplets' personalities are blossoming more and more into their own and they are just a joy to watch! Daniel is in full mode crawling on hands and knees now. He is into everything! Andrew and Colin are still stationary and content sitting and observing. I think Daniel and Jack will teach them to move! Hoyt left today to go out of town to visit his sister and brother and took Jack with him. So the babies and I kept busy with the beautiful weather we had today. I went outside to rake leaves and the babies watched from the stroller. We took a walk after dinner to Dottie's ice cream (a block from our house) and mommy got a little treat! The babies just sat there in their stroller and stared at each person in the ice cream parlor. Everyone sat there and stared at the babies, too! It's quiet around here without my Jack. But once again so much done in one day. I dusted floors and base molding, cleaned a few windows and window sills, put Halloween decorations away, washed and folded 3 loads of laundry, emptied the dishwasher twice, detail cleaned the feeding chairs, vacuumed, fed 12 bottles and 9 jars of baby food, took a shower, bathed each baby one at a time, changed 12 diapers, changed their clothes each twice, played with each baby individually, picked up toys twice and now entering this blog entry. Next I will sit and watch some of my recorded shows on T.V. and try not to pay attention to all the other stuff that needs to be done around here! Good night!

I can't believe it is already November! This year has gone by so fast...even though at times it did not seem to be going very fast! All of the doctor appointments went well last week. Colin and Daniel's hips are fine. Everyone's eyes checked out OK, too. The ophthalmologist predicts that near-sightedness will be in Colin's future. This may likely be in his early grade school years. Anyway, we don't need to return to his office until Colin is 3 years old which is great news! Halloween weekend was fun and busy. Jack was the Big Bad Wolf and the babies were the Three Little Pigs. We went trick or treating in my brother John and sister in law Marie's neighborhood with their kids. Jack had a great time and the babies did great! This was the first time we laid the babies down to sleep so we could hang out for awhile and it went pretty smooth! Today the triplets and I had a play date with 3 other triplet mommies while Jack was in school. All of the babies were born around the same time and it was fun watching 12 babies interact with each other! Once again my sweet babies were well behaved and just sat there and looked around taking it all in! It was no surprise that all 3 fell asleep in the car on the way to pick up Jack at school.
