not much changed from previous days. Girls are doing good!! Here is a video of Mia with her binky, I just love it. It makes me laugh everytime.  We are going to try and have a photo shoot tonight with Nurse Amanda so check back in tonight or tomorrow for a special surprise.... In mean time here are some pics today of the girls.

Eye exams

Today the girls all got eye exams. The doctor said even their eyes are the same. All three girls had normal premature eyes. He will be back later to follow up with them. All girls got tubby baths again today. Brynn and adrie got baths in our tub from the shower (very difficult) decided to do small tub from hospital for drama queen mia. Brynn got to be the first and she pooped in the tub. Haha good thing daddy was giving her a bath. Girls are still trying to back down off continous feed to bolus feeds. The are having a little problems digesting. Might take a while. They are still gaining weight. Please pray for the girls to continue to do good,pray their head ultrasounds are normal next week, and pray they got to bolus and stop bradying so they don't have to go back on caffeine.

3 lbs

Mia is over 3# today!!! Brynn is 2# 7 1/2 oz, and Adrie is 2# 10 oz. Yeah!!! Adrie also learned to suck her thumb today.  Yesterday was bath day and Nurse Susie decided we should try tub baths.  I went across and down the hall to get pumping supplies and heard Mia scream all the way down there when they put her in the tub!! LOL. She hates baths. We were joking that she was yelling to her sisters Don't pick the tubby, don't pick the tubby.  hahahaha.  Adrie got her patches removed to find a hemangioma hidden under her patch.  Much to her daddy's shock... he thought nurse Susie did it!!  We had to have the NP Jen come down to calm dad down! We all laughed.  Something funny to remember. Here are some pics taken today.

3 weeks old Happy Birthday Mommy

Happy Birthday Mommy!! Sorry I haven't been keeping up on my postings Joe had a little surprise for me for my birthday so he didn't bring my camera or my computer around for a few days.  Ok so here is the update on the girls, we were moved to the step down "green" zone yesterday.  The girls are going back to bolus feeding so they can eventually nurse. They are all taken off Caffeine so that is great.  They are all gaining weight on the 24 calorie feedings.  Mia is 2# 15 1/2 oz, Brynn is 2# 7 1/4 oz, and Adrie is 2# 10 1/4 oz.  All are above their birth weights.

For my birthday Joe had a photo taken of him holding all the girls on early morning.  The photo said Happy Birthday Mommy on each of their backs.  Also later in the day he gave me another photo of him and the girls and Addie photo shopped in.  It was so cute.  My friends then surprised me with a visit and dessert.  And to top the night off our nurse let ME hold all three girls. I had a GREAT BIRTHDAY!!!!! BEST EVER!!!!

New pics

Girls are doing good.  I made it home today to visit with the girls big sister Addie.  We went up town to subway in the truck.  She was happy to see me, it had been almost 3 weeks since I had been home.  She always sniffed my belly when I pulled up in the car and today she did the same thing but acted like where are they mommy? I don't smell them in your belly anymore.  She totally knows something is up.  Can't wait for her to meet them!!! Here are some pics I took the other day on my phone..
