Allie finally got it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday Uncle Marky stopped over and we asked her the babies names and she finally got it right!!!!! no more gilbet and moe. she said joey, timmy and caylee joan. it was the cutest thing ever!!!! but then I asked her today and she couldn't remember them again. oh well she will soon enough.

Just Because

Well we didn't have an appt last friday still another week and a half on April 1st. Still hoping he won't put me in the hospital then. I have been feeling pretty good just tired alot. Sleeping is getting worse all I do is flip back and forth all night long. I just keep thinking it won't last forever, and I should just enjoy whatever sleep I can get.

My sisters threw me a shower last Saturday, it was very nice to see everyone. We got alot of very nice things. So thanks to all who was there!!!!! I think we have enough diapers for at least 2 months if not three. Everyone decorated onesies and they turned out soo cute. I guess that is all for now I will keep you all posted.

24 weeks three days

Yeah!!!! We have reached viability!!!! Had an appointment today and all is still looking well, I measured almost 36 weeks and the babies size puts them all around 25 weeks which is great. I gained FOUR pounds since Firday. holy cow! Babies weights and heartrates were Timmy 141 and 1 pound 11 ounces, Joey 150 and 1 pound 14 ounces, and Caylee 160 and 1 pound 12 ounces. My blood pressure is actually down compared to the past few weeks which doctor said is perfectly normal. He said they will watch it close cause I am more prone to preeclampsia, which would not be a good thing. Calvin drove 2 1/2 hours today just so he could be there, he is working up near Lomg Lake working on some fishing cabins. He will be home tomorrow. Allie misses him alot.

Last night at 3 am these babies woke me up because they were moving around so much. I got up and had a glass of milk and went back to sleep in like a 1/2 hour. I guess they are just preparing me for things to come. All of the babies are moving alot lately. Doctor told me to start taking it more easy than I have been my ankles are starting to swell and i feel like I have been pregnant forever. lol

Allie has been calling the two boys Gilbert and Moe, we have no idea where in the world she even thought of those names, but I think she is starting to remember Timmy and Joey. She knows Caylee but she keeps telling me that she is in her belly. She even had a ball up her nighty and said look here she is. It was too cute. Well I don't go back to the dr until the 1st of April so unless something comes up I will update then.

23 weeks and 5 days

Sorry this is so late but thought I would catch you all up to speed. Everything is going great!!! wondering if this is the calm before the storm?!?!?! Hopefully it will go smooth we will wait and see. All of the babies are doing great, growing and strong. the heartrates were Timmy 161, Joey 141, and Caylee was 138. they will check growth when I go on thursday, and we see both doctors and we will get a tour of the Nicu.

Ericka and Allison

Here is one of the pics we had taken on the day Ericka had her grad pics done.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ERICKA!!!!!!

First off I just wanted to wish Ericka a happy "18th" birthday!!!!!!! Can't believe she is already that old.

Well today I saw both doctors and and both appt went very well. My ob measured my belly and I measured 34 weeks only 11 weeks ahead of where I am. not bad lol. I did gain 6 lbs in a week, I was shocked to see that. Oh well it is for the babies right?!?!?!?! I did talk to my ob about my hospital stay, originally he said it would start at 24 weeks, I think I have gained a few weeks as long as things stay the same as they are now. I told him I would like to stay home until the day Ericka goes to France April 2nd. I told him I would even take her to school that day and go right to the hospital if that is what I needed to do. So hopefully things will not change and I will be home to see her off. They also did an echocardiogram on all the babies, it was no fun at all. First off my sciatic nerve is hurtung pretty bad right now and to lay on my back in not fun. So after a major hot flash and going from side to side and on my back they got all three done but it took from 10:15 until 12:10. Dr Hayes said I had the most boring triplets, but I took it as a big compliment. Here are a few pics for you, as you can see Baby B Joey didn't cooperate very well, I guess they can't all be good all the time. lol


Baby A Timmy Heartrate 147




Baby B Joey Heartrate 136



Baby C Caylee Heartrate 138




Next week they will do growth again.

Boys Names

We have finally decided on the boys names. After much name throwing and Ericka not liking the names we picked we have decided they are not hers!!!!! lol Anyway Baby A the one on the bottom will be Timothy Marvin (Timmy) and Baby B will be Joseph Richard (Joey). It is a releif to finally give them names. These babies are playing havoc on my sciatic nerve, sometimes it feels like a very sharp pain in the butt. And Calvin laughs when it is really bothering me, nice guy. lol We have an appointment on Friday, keeping our fingers crossed that the weather will cooperate, but it is not looking very good. If not we go on Monday. They are doing echocardiograms on all the babies, they say another 3 hour appt. fun, fun, fun.
