Today we had our 32 week visit and everything is fantastic. The boys are constantly moving despite their cramped quarters, making it a bit difficult to get measurements. However, Paula - our ultrasound tech, is gifted and has determined them all to have reached at least 4 lbs. Specifically...Baby A is 4 lbs. even, Baby B is 4 lbs. 8 oz., and Baby C is 4 lbs. 3 oz. They are all just above or just below the 50th percentile for singletons. This is wonderful for triplets. We now have only 20 days to go until September 25th, and even factoring in the inaccuracy of the ultrasounds at this stage, we feel confident they'll all be near 4.5 lbs.
They have been so rowdy this evening, that I've barely managed even these few lines. Just another way that they are exactly like their older brother. Jack is blissfully unaware of how his world is about to change -- staying busy winning the hearts of all he encounters. Currently he's working his Great Aunt Marie (Ree Ree) pretty hard while she's visiting from Ft. Lauderdale. As she was putting on her make-up earlier this week, he leaned in almost nose to nose and said, "Ree Ree pret-ty." He followed that up the next day with "Wuv you, Ree Ree." I tried telling him that she's already put him in her will, so he could dial it down a notch, but there's just no reasoning with some people.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, he managed to wrap all the men in the immediate family around his finger when he passed gas loudly and announced to everyone in the room, "Oh! You hear dat?" His Daddy, Paw Paw, and Uncle Josh are all claiming credit for that little episode.
I'll try to keep things updated over the next 3 weeks. We're moving to twice weekly OB visits, including non-stress tests. But the finish line is in sight!!! Thanks for keeping up with us through our blog. We really appreciate all the expressions of support and concern.
