April 2-9, 2011

This past week I went back to work 2 days, which was really hard being away.  However, these 2 days flew by and I now have 8 days off!  My aunt Michelle helped Sarah on Tuesday while I was at work.  Our parents continue to help us too.  My aunt Michelle and Presley helped watch the babies and Hayden with me while Sarah went to NW Perinatal Center for her 6 week check.  Everything went well and she now has to take 1 tab of labetalol twice a day instead of 2 twice a day.  Her blood pressure is a lot better.  She has to do a 24 hour urine test to see if her protein is going down.  This will show us that her liver and/or kidneys were not damaged from her severe preeclampsia.  Tyler and Autumn got to meet our triplets for the first time.  Autumn and Tyler are going to make awesome parents!  My Grandma and Grandpa Gescher came over for dinner on Friday night and they brought halibut with them for dinner.  This was the first time my Grandpa has been out to our house since he was hospitalized. 
On April 7, 2011 their weights were:
Hunter 8 lbs 12 oz
Hadley 7 lbs 6 oz
Holden 8 lbs 1 oz
It is amazing how strong they are all getting.  They all seem to like tummy time and we are trying to do this often for them to gain neck strength.  The Statesman Journal did an article on our family and it can be seen at: http://www.statesmanjournal.com/article/20110407/NEWS/104070353/Scio-family-adjusts-triplets?odyssey=tab%7Ctopnews%7Ctext%7CHome
We felt very blessed to have them do this story and it will be fun to show our kids it in the future!  We also got back the rest of our pictures from Julie Martin of ZoZoBugBaby.  Here they are:

Our mare Anna (Dun in Montana) is getting closer and closer to foaling.  Here are some pictures showing her pregnant belly.

Thanks,
