Busy busy busy. I can't even tell you how fast the days and weeks go by over here. I feel like I get one hour of "free time" during the day and that's when I usually check email, relax, do laundry or whatever. We said bye to Jody on Tuesday so now Ry and I get to do all the night feedings again. We're very close to trying to let the girls sleep through the night or at least wake up once a night instead of at midnight and at 4 a.m. I don't even remember what it feels like to sleep through the night! It's been almost 4 months! Crazy! Things are going so well though. The home health care nurse keeps saying that they are the healthiest preemies she's ever seen. We're so thankful!!!! So now the nurse will visit every other week since they are doing so well. A week or two ago, Emily and Hailey got together and BOTH decided that they did not want to nurse anymore. It was crazy! All of the sudden they both started pushing away and crying like crazy after nursing for only 2 minutes. Sooo....Addison loves it though so now she gets mom all the time. :) I have really loved nursing so it makes me sad to stop with the other girls. Plus now I feel like I see them less. We'll see. I might start winding down so that I can rotate giving breastmilk bottles to all of them. :) My goal was to nurse the triplets for 3 months minimum....and I'm almost to 4 months. It's going by so fast!
Hmmm..what else. Not much else is new over here I guess. I honestly think the hardest part about having triplets is that I don't see my friends (or my hubby) as much anymore. It's just a drastic life change. I love every minute of it but it is different getting used to not having a big social life anymore! Just when I get a minute to be able to talk on the phone, I don't feel like talking! Oh well... :) It's been such a blessing having helpers from church come over though. Makes me feel like I'm getting out! Well, I've rambled long enough and better get to the kiddos. Have a great day everyone!
