Wow! Hard to believe these precious babies will be FOUR months old in four days!!! Brings tears to my eyes! Andy and I are having SO much fun with our little miracles! We're learning something new daily. It's crazy that you can learn so very much from three 4 month olds. They have taught us more than I would have ever imagined. My mother always said that time would speed up once I had children. Well, once again, she was right! She also said I'd never love something so much, and she was right- again. I go to bed thinking, "how could I love something more?" and I wake up and CANNOT wait to see them. I want to take this point in time in my life and just freeze it. I've never had more fun, been more tired, or been more thankful or just plain satisfied. Every day brings a new blessing, a new smile or cackle, or a new discovery, and I love it! As I've said before, I am living my dream and wake up each day and ask myself, "did I really have triplets???" Every day may not be perfect, but all in all, I cannot complain one bit- it is a real dream, and I love my children.
The babies are doing great and growing like weeds! Mark and Miles are huge- maybe around 13 pounds. Posey is still petite compared to them, but she's catching up- around 10 pounds! The boys would probably eat her if I let them. (We go to the pediatrician at the end of the week and will get more accurate weights.) We are finally at the point where they are sleeping well! Praise God! We feed them at 10, or a little before, and they'll sleep until 6-ish, usually. They are all finding their hands, and it is hysterical. They'll look at them and just can't figure out what these things are that are attached to them. However, their hands have found the way to their mouths, and we may have some thumb suckers on our hands. Each baby's personality is just beaming at this point in time, so I cannot imagine what little people they will grow into. Posey is funny and very prissy. She is ALL girl. She even cries dainty- like a girl. I can tell she is already going to be just spoiled rotten. She laughs at the boys when they're both crying, and it is great. She's already ruling the roost. Most of the time, if they (the boys) are both crying at the same time, it is probably because she has poked one in the eye or is kicking someone. We have our hands full with this one. Our little, or should I say big, Miles is hysterical! He has really come into his own! Those big hazel eye will follow me around the room until I stop to speak to him! He is a joker! We put him on the play mat under the mirror, and little joker thinks he is hot stuff! He will talk to himself for at least 45 minutes, and he thinks it is wonderful- and so do I! He is so very, very precious!!! I can already tell he'll be our little troublemaker. He has a way of poking his bottom lip out, and it happens quite often if he doesn't get his way! His sweet little voice is music to my soul. Our darling Mark is such a charmer, and he has his mama's heart in the palm of his hand, as do Pose and Miles. My heart is mush, and they are just shaping it into an even better heart. To have started out being a rather difficult baby, Mark is so very, very sweet. He will coo and coo at us, but if Miles is cooing, Mark cannot be heard. Wonder if it will always be this way!??? He has the sweetest voice and most beautiful baby blues you've ever seen and the longest eyelashes as well. When he bats those eyes at me, he melts me.
As you can see, I am completely and literally in love with my children. My heart hurts I love them so very much, and I'm so thankful the Lord has granted me such an awesome opportunity in being their mother. To God be the glory...
