Today, Nov. 26th, was our original due date. They always use two birthdays for multiples when considering development. They have their age by birthdate and then their age based on due date. That would mean that anything they have done so far is bonus !! They are lifting their heads some now and focusing much better.
We went to the doctor today for a checkup. We once again loaded the babies into the van which takes Justin 2 trips since I still can't lift anything that heavy and headed out. When we got there we were reminded what a novelty we are. Many people, just in the waiting room, asked questions and wanted to see the babies. Then the doctor wanted us to take a picture of him holding the boys. It was cute. He had never had triplets for patients before and wasn't sure he would again so he thought he'd like to have a picture. Funny.
The babies are all looking good. Liam has a tiny bump on the back of his head that I was wondering about but he didn't think it was anything to worry about. Dylan is 6 lbs 15 oz now. Big guy! All he does right now is eat and sleep. Evan is 5 lbs 14 oz and Liam is 5 lbs 9 oz. So they are all growing. I'm excited that Dylan is pretty much 7 lbs. For some reason I'm really looking forward to them all being over 8 lbs. Not sure why that number is the number in my mind but it is.
Here are a couple of pictures of the boys having tummy time. Dylan doesn't really hate it as much as he appears to in this picture.

The bosy are so sweet, Seeing how tiny they are brings back looks of good memories of my babies being tiny like that.
8lbs is a good number. YOu don't have to worry so much about waking them up to eat anymore, they can sleep at little longer and they are not quite so fragile.
