An Update Long Overdue
Sorry it has been so long since I last updated the blog. The kids have been keeping us pretty busy the past couple months. The triplets had their 4-month check-up last week and everything is going great. Keri is now 13 lb – 3 oz, JD is 13 lb even, and little Maddy is 12 lb – 10 oz. Man are they ever growing up fast! All three are beginning to smile a lot and we started to get a few little laughs over the past few weeks. It is so fun to watch them as they begin to interact with us and their surroundings. Since JD’s trip to the hospital, all of the kids have been pretty healthy. Last week all of the kids got a little cold, but nothing much more than the sniffles. We’ve been counting our blessings every night that things have been going so well.
Over the past months Jill and I have pretty much become self-sufficient. We still welcome our help when available, but it is really nice to know that we can go it on our own without a problem. Somehow Jill even manages to take the Trips to daycare on her own (she has figured out how to carry 3 car seats…). The last couple weeks, the girls have slept through the night pretty consistently and JD has been getting up only once. That alone has done wonders to keep us rested. All in all things have been going pretty well.
It’s been a challenge keeping pace with Lindsay lately. That little bugger has a seemingly endless supply of energy. Some days I feel that I am just stretched too thin to give her all of the attention that she deserves. We’ve been making it a point to at least take her out with just Jill and I on the weekends and that has been wonderful.
Well……off to bed for some much needed rest. I hope to keep the blog updated weekly now that we’re getting settled into a routine. Thanks for reading!

My have they grown? So glad to see an update and hear that things are going so well. And kudos to Jill on the 3 carseat at once deal. She is She-Ra, you’ll have to get a picture of this tremendous feat!
