Brad and Stacey brought Olivia Kay home to join them on Wed. August 23. She finally decided to eat all of her bottle, 38mL (just over 1oz.) without the help of tube feeding. After being home for a couple days she joined her sisters in eating about 43mL at each feeding. Upon returning home Brad and Stacey gave Olivia a bath right away, she was getting a little stinky :)
This past Friday, they took the girls to the their appointment with the pediatrician, the first trip together as a family in the Mini-Van!
The girls weighed in at:
Olivia 4 lbs. 14 1/2oz. back to her birth weight
Evie 4 lbs. 15oz. weighed with a very full diaper :)
Sophie 4 lbs. 7 1/2oz. she came home at 4lbs 3oz, doing great!
The girls continue to eat every 3 hours around the clock. Stacey and Brad are able to get some rest with the dedicated help from family and friends.
A new personal record for Brad was reached this weekend--he slept in until 10am on a Saturday morning!!!! If you know Brad, this is quite unusual. :)
More photos and updates coming soon!!

Thanks for the updates. I love the pictures. They are so, so cute. I hope all is going well. I will stop over soon to visit. I would like to let the dust settle, so to speak, and give you some time to get into a routine. I guess I'll see you in a couple of years! Three girls and a routine. Hmmmm. I'll call this week. I can't wait to meet them and see you two as doting parents. Where's the camo?
love, hugs, and prayers,
Michele

Congratulations on your 3 beautiful baby girls! Your site was emailed to me by fellow Vista teachers...so glad you are doing well and the girls are home. I'm here in FL, a stay-at-home mom (not teaching!!) with my 1 1/2 year old, Andrew - and loving it. Again, all the best to you and your new family! What little sweet peas!!

All right, Gammons. Where have you been. I doubt you'll read these comments, but I was shocked to see you on the list! Email me, and send pictures, or else! Sorry, Pylmans, to use this to get in touch with friends I haven't seen or heard from in forever. Who's your Vista source, Gammons? (No one is left!)

It's so good to see your family come together. Dream sends his greetings and was way excited to hear the news, he's out again, but wants you to know you're in our prayers as you adjust and as the girls grow. It's nice to see a little glimmer of home. We'll see you in a few weeks. dream and rachel.
