Lots of Pictures

This week has been so exciting! Mady had kicked it off saying "da-da", then on Monday Annabel started rolling over her right side and has done it alot this week, and then Thursday Mady started saying "ba-ba"! Annabel has been so happy and talkative and very into socializing with her brother and sister, it is so special to see! When our Early On PT came on Thursday Mady was a show-off, she prop sat for over a minute which was by far the longest she had done that thus far and she attempted to get into a sitting position from laying down but eventually flopped down. Now we just need to work on weight-bearing with Mady so when she stands she doesn't always jump as that can slow down the process of learning to walk. I did learn from our PT that in order to participate in the CHAMP program (the next infant one is in September) Annabel will need a CP diagnosis so I have to talk to her PM&R doctor about this.

Today we went to Summerfest in our town and it was fun to get them out and about! Tonight my parents are watching the babies so B.J. and I can have an adults only get-together with the other parents in our higher orders multiples (triplets and +) club, this is the first time we will meet them. Then tomorrow my friend from work who was due one week after me is bringing her baby over to meet the triplets. Her and I both went thru a lot trying to conceive and it was so exciting when we both got pregnant in the same month! This week is going to be crazy with appointments - Tuesday is Johnathan's lung function test, Wednesday is PT in the a.m. for Annabel and then neonatal follow-up in the p.m. for all three, and then Thursday is their 12 month well baby visit. Please pray that all goes well this week!

This is a picture of Johnathan's 1st DQ shake. He did get a little taste of what was on the end and was quite interested. Sure, the child won't eat baby food but will open right up for this!
These are some pictures from our camping trip. The first is of the first time I put a barrette in Mady's hair - it didn't last long though. One is with our neighbor Chelsea taking a peak at the babies. It will be so much fun when ours are moving around too and they can all play together!

These next pics are of the babies trying zweibeck toast for the first time. They all three like it!
