Today we woke up early to feed the triplets before we had to leave at 8 AM for their doctor appointment.  Nancy stayed here with Hayden while we were gone.  It was helpful to have Nancy here last night to help with the feedings.  The doctor appointment went well.  We were the center of attention and everyone stared at us with our 3 car seats being carried through the office.  Dr. W checked them all out and said they were perfect and she was amazed how healthy they are and also amazed that none of the required any oxygen at all after birth.  She told Sarah how awesome she is and that she did great in carrying them to 34 weeks 1 day. 

The weights at today's checkup were:

Hunter: 6 lbs

Hadley 5 lbs 3 oz

Holden 5 lbs 9 oz

They have all gained great weight!  We came home and Hayden was happy for us to be home.  Nancy stayed here and helped us with things and made brownies.  She left around 5.  Then, my Mom and Dad brought dinner for us (we couldn’t eat meat since today is Ash Wednesday).  My Mom is staying tonight to help us. 

Quite the production in changing them,

undressing them, then weighing them.

Thanks,

Casey
