"We'll be home in 2 Months!"
Posted by Tom
Well, after 55 days in the NICU, all three of the babies made it home. I cannot tell you how relieved Kim and I are to have everyone at home under one roof. No more trips back and forth to the hospital has been great the past two weeks. After going to the hospital everyday for 2 months, we started to forget what it was like to be at home during the evenings.
All three babies are doing great. Everyone is eating well and getting bigger with each passing day. We get to take the babies for their 2 month wellness pediatrician visit and shots next week. Kim and I do not look forward to having three grumpy babies on our hands.
Having triplets has been nothing short of a blessing. Even though all three have a lot of the same characteristics, their different personalities are shining through. Kim and I can now tell who's crying just by listening to their voices.
Holland seems to be the most social of all three right now. She loves to look around and see who's there and what's going on. Reiker seems to be more content as long as he isn't hungry. Sutton sleeps a little more but has her moments of awake time too (usually at night when mom and dad are trying to sleep :-/ ).
The hardest part for Kim and I has been the adjustment to broken sleep during the nights. We do, however, get from 3-4 hours of sleep in two block increments. Keeping the babies on the same feeding/changing schedule has been our saving grace.
I leave you all with a few 2 month pictures of the babies. Enjoy!
