An early Easter gift.................














Olivia has rolled from her back to her stomach and vice versa. Evan has rolled from his stomach to his back, but is close to rolling the other way. Ethan is not really interested in rolling yet.
We hope you enjoy our new photos. In a couple of weeks we will have more pictures taken with our cousins Aidan and Alex. So check back for more videos and pictures.

WE ARE HUNGRY...............................

As you can see the babies are patiently waiting for their evening cereal and applesauce.

Ethan is not fond of his sister borrowing his hand.

Final synagis shots....................

Ethan, Evan, and Olivia all received their final Synagis shots this afternoon. Soon we will have a picture of them with our visiting nurse Marty for all to see. Most likely tomorrow. Our insurance ended up paying for more doses of the medication than we first thought they would. I don't believe they were suppose to but they did. You probably wouldn't get that with government run health care. That is a totally different blog!

The little ones are continuing to eat the applesauce and cereal. Evan likes the applesauce a little more than the cereal I think. I don't think he knew there was anything better until he had applesauce.

Applesauce for the first time..................


The little Camper's tried applesauce for the first time today. They really liked it. Olivia is going Thursday to get another follow-up on her eyes. I am sure they will continue to be doing well. Hopefully soon we won't have to continue taking her to these appointments.
We have been very lucky over the winter months to avoid illnesses for the most part. Other than one weekend when Evan and Olivia had a little bout of the flu, we have stayed rather healthy over the past few months.
Nicole and I are already beginning to plan their first birthday party. I know it seems early, but October will be here in no time at all. March is half over already. We are preparing for a BIG BIG gathering and celebration.
Will continue to have updates and photos.

Olivia is already relying on her brother for protection.

We told the kids about the Crucifixion of Jesus and Ethan is acting the story out.

We really enjoy Ethan's new mobile. While we were watching the mobile go round and round, Dad was putting up a new blind and curtain.


Ethan has decided to taste the play mat.

Spending time with our Great Grandparents..............




We slept in our beds all night......................

These smiling faces slept in their cribs all night for the first time. They had been sleeping in bassinets up until now. Evan went down with relative ease. Ethan was a bit more challenging. I would rock him to sleep and then lay him down and instantly awake. Finally I just laid him down and left him. He fussed for awhile, about 20 minutes but later gave up and went to sleep. He turned himself in the bed as you can see. Olivia still gets up through the night occasionally so she will remain in the bassinet until she can sleep completely through the night.




Ethan cannot decide if he likes the cereal or his hand better. He really made it a challenge to feed him.

Saturday morning with the gang.............






Saturday morning with the gang. The boys don't like to help with the laundry. Olivia didn't mind. We enjoy these mornings when we can all hang out together.

Cereal for the boys.................










The trio went for their four month check-up on Tuesday this week, they are all doing really good according to Dr. Freshwater. Evan is 13 lb 7 oz, Ethan 13 lb 6 oz, and Olivia is 10 lb 1 oz. He gave us the OK to start the boys with rice cereal. He wants us to wait for Olivia for a little bit longer. He said they are actually catching up to a normal full term baby quite well. As you can tell from the above picture, Evan absolutely loved the cereal. Ethan did well too, but not as messy with it surprisingly. We don't go back for two months.
After the appointment Tuesday, we went with the trio to Max and Erma's for dinner. They did really well on our 3rd trip to a restaurant. They slept for the most part. The boys were awake for a little while, but slept the majority of the time. We naturally got stared at. A fact of life that we are going to have to get used to. Someone told me we should get T-shirts printed that say, YES! They are triplets, YES! We wanted them, and YES! We can tell them apart. The last is funny to me since we have two boys and a girl.
The kids are getting so long. They are moving to larger size clothes merely for the length. There is only an inch between them all with Ethan being the longest followed by Evan and finally Olivia.
Gloria (Nicole's Grandma) is doing very well with the babies in the day time. They have worked out a nice time schedule for themselves.

On an odd note for all the dads that have to do the dishes at their house, invest in the Dawn Power Brush. It is an absolute lifesaver. Takes all the work on. We received one as a gift and I don't know how I did dishes before without it. It doesn't make doing the dishes fun, but it sure does make it a whole lot easier. And with the triplets, we can always use items that make life easier for us.

Nicole pointed out to me that I sometimes repeat myself in my postings. I forget what I posted the last time and realize now that I occasionally re post the same thing. New things are always going on but sometimes with all that is going on it gets difficult to keep everything straight all of the time.

Update on Ethan crossing his eyes, Dr. Rosenthal said, "that is a good thing as long as he doesn't hold them that way for a long time or they stay that way." He also said, "Ethan has realized he has two eyes and that he is more developed."

The video is of Evan and how he has found his thumb. They are all learning and exploring the world around them so much. The other night I read from Mother Goose to the boys (Olivia was sleeping) for quite awhile. They just sat for the longest time listening to me read the stories to them. After some time it was time to fuss. That ended the reading session.
