Their Home!

Well all three babies are home! Noah and Carter came home Thursday and Emma came home today. Our first night with the boys home was so great we finally get to enjoy them and get to really see what they are all about. Justin did the 12am feeding and the 6am and I did the 3am so we both got about 6 hours of sleep and it was not too bad. Tonight will be our first night with all three so we are not sure how well it will go with one person feeding all three. Justin and I love having them home and it is so great seeing them all together again. We already do 2 loads of laundry a day and go through 24 diapers at least each day which is just the beginning. They eat every three hours and all eat 30 minutes apart so needless to say sleep will be not existent in our house for a few months.

36 weeks!

The babies have grown so much and are doing fantastic we could not ask for anything more. Emma is now 4 pounds 5 ounces and Noah is 5 pounds and Carter is 5 pounds 1.4 ounces. They are all so different and have already shown their personalities. Emma is fiesty and already knows how to get what she wants. Noah is the flirt and a people person just like dad i, he is always looking at everything that is going on and is way to busy to take a bottle. Carter is so laid back and I think would sleep all day if we did not wake him up to eat. They are all so good and really don't cry much unless they are really hungry. Carter is in an open crib and will most likely be home by this Friday and Emma and Noah will not be far behind probably by the end of the week. We cannot wait to get them all home, we know it will be hard but it is still going to be so great raising all three of them. 

34 weeks Delivery Day!

Well the day has finally arrived and what a road we have traveled to get here! Justin and I both cannot believe we made it to 34 weeks it is amazing what the power of prayer can do! So many friends and family came to support us and it felt so good to feel all of the love and support before going into surgery. The whole process of getting an epidural and having the surgery went by so quick the entire process was only about 40 minutes and I was in recovery. Dr. Adam was fantastic she has all the babies out in 1.5 minutes and they were all fine. Emma came first at 3 pounds 11 ounces and 16 inches, then came Noah at 4 pounds 11.3 ounces and 17 inches and finally Carter at 4 pounds 11.3 ounces and 17.5 inches. They all breathed room air and the apgar scores were all perfect and the babies were very healthy with no issues. I was in recovery for about 2 hours and felt fine and was anxious to see my new sweet babies the proud Dad took a video of them al being weighed and measured and was so proud of his new children. We feel so blessed to have been given three gifts from God and all of them healthy and strong is just a miracle. God is great and we are proof that miracles still happen!
