Growing by Leaps and Bounds

Do they look like they love each other?

The triplets are now 11 weeks old--almost 3 months!!

Each week has brought changes in the girls and in their routine. They are all smiling and starting to "coo." If you don't know what that means, basically they are starting to make little baby talk and it never fails to bring a tear to my eye. At the last Dr. appointment the girls weighed in and are getting pleasantly plump!

Olivia 9lbs. 6oz
Evie 10lbs.
Sophie 9lbs.

It is easy to tell the difference in weight when you hold the girls and see the difference in how they take their bottles. Evie, weighing the most, takes 4+ oz. in no time and burps efficiently. she still deals with reflux but has found some relief in sleeping in her carseat. This also gives Mommy, Daddy and Grandmas some extra zzzzzz's. Sophie has earned herself the nickname "Sopher the loafer" because she tends to loaf around when it is time to eat, not always interested in finishing the job. Olivia also has a will of her own and adorable big cheeks and chins. She often wakes in the night before feeding time and feels as if it is time to just not sleep. All three girls have had nights where they just need to cry it out before falling asleep. Just imagine it for a moment. :)

Here are some very recent photos.

Evie, oh so cozy in her seat

2 Months Old!

The girls had their 2 month check up and first round of immunizations this past Friday (the 13th). They all received 4 shots. Sophie took it the best, she must be the tough one. Mommy was crying with the girls as they were getting their shots. Dad (I) found all the sadness humerous. (sorry)

They are:

Olivia - 9 lb. 0 oz.
Evie - 9 lb. 7 oz.
Sophie - 8 lb. 9 oz.

Hopefully auntie Chelle will add some pictures soon. (Keep bugging her because I'm not that computer savy)
