3 Cute Babies

Some More Pictures
For everyone who does not know yet- Edison had a shunt placed in his brain a couple of weeks ago to releave some pressure that was building up from excess fluid. As far as brain surgery goes this is pretty routine. We spent 2 nights and 3 days in Salt Lake City at Primary Children's. He was flown from Idaho Falls to SLC on Thursday night- had his surgery Friday morning & was released from the hospital on Saturday morning. He is doing wonderful and we are told that he will have no lasting ill effects.

Here is a cute picture of all three of them after their baths. They sure love those pacifiers!


This is Edison in his usual mellow mood.


Here he is giving us the one eye stare.


Sleeping peacefully.


This is Ginger being crazy & trying to crawl.


She was very angry a few minutes later after all attempts to crawl had failed.


Ginger is our little escape artist. We found her like this in the middle of the night. Somehow she had gotten her leg outside her baby straight jacket.


Here is Daisy being bright eyed and taking it all in.


This is her sleeping on the couch. She thinks its such a treat when we let her sleep on her side.


Here she is in her daisy pants.

Free At Last!!!

Homecoming!!!


Last Wednesday Edison was ready to break out of baby jail & his sisters couldn't wait for him to get home.


Here is the first picture of all three together at home.


On Friday the weather was wonderful and we took the babies for a walk. Everyone at the park was talking about our three beautiful babies.

We tried to take some cute pictures of our naked babies, but they weren't really in the mood for a photo shoot. Maybe later?!?
Doesn't Edison look giant in this photo? He really is the big brother.
We are just so happy to have all of the kids at home where they belong. We are pretty busy but loving every minute of it!

The Girls Are Home!

Just a Quick Update
The girls came home on Saturday. Everything is going smoothly, but it is very hard to not have Edison with us. He is doing great. He is taking about half of his food by bottle and we hope that he will be joining his sisters in the near future. We spend our days feeding babies, running to the hospital to see Edison, and catching a few zzzzzzzs when we can.
Please be aware that due to RSV season our house is currently under quarantine. If anyone has been sick (even just a running nose), or been around someone who is sick- please do not come to see the babies. We appreciate everyones help in protecting our family.

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.
