Baths & Bottle Feeding

All the triplets are doing just wonderful & Mom & Dad are preparing for their homecoming. We will not be surprised to have them home very soon. Edison is now over 5lbs, Daisy and Ginger are both over 4lbs, but with the way Ginger eats she'll probably pass her sister up before we know it. The babes are living in one big crib now & all wearing regular clothes. Edison is off his nasal cannula most of the time and taking about a third of his feedings by bottle. Daisy is still getting a little bit of oxygen, but now taking all feedings by bottle. Ginger is our little champ, even though she is the smallest, she is taking all her feedings by bottle and is on and off her oxygen. We would not be surprised if she is the first to come home.

Here is Edison with his Dad. Edison totally likes Brian better & I'm trying not to take it personally.

This is Ginger during her first bath. She wasn't so sure what to think of it, but has really enjoyed them since.

Here are the kiddos in their fancy snow hats.

Here is the cutest picture of Daisy in her snow gear, before she was wearing regular clothes.

This is the first time all three were together. We were just so excited to get them in one picture. They seem to be very happy to hang out with each other again.

This is Daisy eating food like a regular baby. It seems like such a normal thing, but Mom & Dad are very proud of all of them for eating so well.


Here is our very first family photo! Many more to follow.

We will try to post more often, but I have a feeling that we'll be very, very busy.

Silly Babies

All the kids are doing great. All three have passed their birth weights. Edison is now 4lbs, Daisy is 3lbs, and Ginger is almost 3lbs. Everyone is getting bigger and stronger, and we cannot wait until we get to bring them home.


This is a new video of Edison with his pacifier.

Edison is doing "eexxcceelleenntt".

He is out of his Isolet, and in an open air crib. He is wearing real clothes.

No Photos Please.

Daisy is being a little camera shy.

Na na na na na na.

Ginger is making faces at me.

Daisy and Ginger are showing off their new head bands. They are beautiful, and they know it.

They are so cute I can't stand it!!!

I don't know if anyone else is interested, but they are just so cute. We spend the days with them & then come home & look at pictures of them.

Co-bedding

The girls graduated to the step down NICU today, and are now being co-bedded. They look so cute together and seem very happy to have each others company again. Ginger is now breathing completely unassisted. Daisy still has her nasal cannula, but should be off it in the next few days. They both are very close in size and are definitely going to be hard to tell apart. Their hair looks to be strawberry blonde and wavy, but it might be to early to tell.

Here I am making a silly face, but I just love getting to hold the babies. This is first time that I got to hold more than one at a time and it was very nice. They look so cute in their little hats.

Here is Brian holding Daisy. She really loves being held, but is not really sure what to make of the chest hair.

Edison was having a harder day today, so we did not get to hold him. He had to have his PIC line replaced since the first one did not make it all the way to his heart. His tummy was bothering him a little bit and making him uncomfortable, but we did get to visit him and he held on to Brian's finger for a long time. We are looking forward to him feeling better so that he can move upstairs with his sisters.
