First Trimester Completed (and other updates)

Sorry we haven't got around to updating the blog lately. I keep saying I'm going to do it almost every night and then I start doing something else.


We did see Dr. Moore again about two weeks ago. We went through the whole 1st visit prenatal stuff (blood tests, etc). She even threw in an ultrasound for us, but she forgot to give us the pictures , otherwise I would post. The 3 babies looked healthy and she said so far everything is looking good. I'll probably still stop working around 9/20/07 and she said the average for triplets is 32 weeks, so that would be 12/12/07. But, since I'm so healthy (pat myself on the back for that), I can possibly make it to Christmas or longer! So, I'm out of the first trimester now--maybe I'll get some energy back. We'll see...it might be different with 3 babies. No more progesterone supplements---I always had trouble getting that pill down! Oh, and I'm getting really big all of a sudden too-I need to get some new pics up. So, on that front, just keep praying for us that we have 3 healthy babies and they keep growing good!

Oh, and one more thing relating to the new babies...
Our friends Dave and Sheila had their yearly bbq last weekend and all of our friends brought us a package of diapers. It was such a fun surprise. We really do have a great group of friends that we hang out with. They are all so sweet and thoughtful. So, now we have a good start on our diaper collection--we ended up with 14 packages.
Thanks to all of you!!!

So.... we've been keeping busy. Two weeks ago, we took a trip up to Lake Michigan with Jane/Ken and their 3 youngest girls to visit some friends (Liz and Dan). We pretty much just hung out on the beach everyday and then grilled or ate pizza at night. Very relaxing and it was beautiful. We've never been up there and would love to go back. Seemed almost like the ocean, but a lot closer!

Now, for some various pictures and none of them are really in order.

This is Father's Day 2007


July 4th Fireworks at White Birch Park--Poor Allison didn't like them so much. She cried the whole time with her arm over her eyes and then she fell asleep at the very end



She may look like her daddy, but she loves summer just as much as her mommy!

Okay, I'm done for the night.....

Glad to see you're doing well. I'm such a blog hopper and got worried when your blog was neglected for a couple weeks... BUT you made up for it! Cute pics! I love Alli's clogs. So adorable!

Glad to hear all is well going into the 2nd Trimester. Sounds like you've got awesome friends and family to support you!
Take Care from Sacramento!

I love looking at all the pics of Allison. She is so sweet, and we all miss her so much. I am looking so forward to coming in Labor Day weekend. Since Amy & Angela aren't coming with us, they said you better bring her down to Nashville to visit. Love ya, Jackie
