Post from mom

Well the girls were right. The doctors visit today was less than pleasant. But it was needed. The girls are now almost 18 weeks old. I still can't believe it. Today's visit was very important - not only for vaccines but some other things as well. Hannah and Hailey both have right feet that turn back more than they should. Not a big deal but something we'll follow up with an orthopedic doctor about. Emily's soft spot on her head is just about gone. This may or may not be a problem. An MRI will tell us more and give us the info that we need but she'll have to be put to sleep for this. Her cognitive skills are right where they should be so we're leaning towards the "not going to be a problem" side of things. We'll keep everyone posted.

On the better side of things...they are all growing and gaining weight which is sooooo great! Emily is now 12lbs 6oz, Hannah is 9lbs 8.5 oz and Hailey is 9lbs 2.5oz. That's really great news considering all 3 of them weighed less than 9lbs total at birth! They are all sleeping through the night now as well. They go to bed around 8:00 and wake up between 6:00 and 7:00. This has been going on for a whole week now and Pete and I are loving it for sure!

We must be doing something right because not only do they sleep through the night but they are GOOD BABIES! They smile and giggle and it's so cute. They can do many things and are progressing along at a good pace. Each day is exciting because I'm never sure what new thing they will do. And with 3 of them...there is always something new! We are always on the go too. If we don't go visit anyone then we go to the park or go for long walks...sometimes we do both! And no matter where we go or what we do people always tell the girls how beautiful they are and how good they are. Both of course are true.

Life is good.
