Reminder...if you click on the pictures, they will get bigger.
The babies are doing great. Sorry there haven't been many pictures lately. Jimmy and Jenna tried their first bottle on Thurs (12/20) and did very well. Cassie had her first bottle on 12/26. Since then, they have been doing about every other feeding from the bottle. Jimmy was the first to move out of his incubator on Thursday (12/27), and the girls followed the next day. So far, they are keeping their body temps up. They want me to bring in more clothes for them to wear, so now they are going to get some use out of all of their new stuff :) They just keep growing and growing....hopefully they will be home in the next few weeks. As of last night, Jenna weighs 3lbs 150z, Jimmy - 4lbs 7oz, and Cassie - 3lbs 140z. I just can't believe how well they are all doing. Makes me so happy--all of our prayers are working! Oh, and they had a vision exam also and they all came back fine. And they are all off the caffeine now also since Christmas. Jenna is finally off her nasal cannula.....lets see how long she can last this time--hopefully she doesn't go back on, although, its not a huge deal if she has to.
Bottle feeding them our first time (Jenna, Jimmy, Cassie)
Jimmy in his new open crib
Cassie giving everyone a smile :)
Our Christmas was wonderful like always! We had so much to celebrate this year. It was also hectic like usual, but throw in two trips to the hospital that day and it was even more hectic. Alli was very into it this year (Santa Claus, gifts, etc), so that made it a lot of fun too.
We were a little late getting our tree this year, but we managed to get one. And Jim pulled the triplet card and we got it for half price! haha! I was taking pics of Alli putting the ornaments on the tree and then she thought I had to take one EVERY time she put one on :)
The babies first Christmas! We celebrated with Jim's family on Sun (12/23). First we went to the hospital for Nana & Papa to be able to hold them for the first time.
In order, these are Lynn holding Jenna, Jimmy, & then Cassie
Jim's Dad holding Jenna
We also got to hold all 3 of them together for the first time. It was so great, although we wish Alli could have been in the picture too :(
We went home to eat and exchange gifts. I didn't get many great shots because we were all busy, but I thought I would show Amy (Jim's little sister) some love. I like this picture of her and Jim.
Christmas morning
Alli in her usual attire...diaper and a few extras! She loved her new puppy (about as close as we will get to having a puppy for a LONG time!)--and her MOUSE slippers and Dorda hat too :) The camera went dead, so I have to post pics of the babies from Christmas day later...they are on my moms camera.
My dad got to see the babies for the first time on Christmas Day also. He came in from Texas to spend Christmas here. Here he is holding Jenna.
I'll end this post with Little Miss Hollywood!!!!
(and look above--my kitchen was painted this weekend!! yeah!!!)

All the pictures are so cute. I can't wait until they get to go home. They are really growing quickly. Alli is so adorable. I am looking forward to seeing all of you guys again at the end of the month. Love ya!
Love the update and all the pictures. Great pictures of the grandparents holding the babies. Jimmy is so cute. He looks so big in his open crib. The babies are beautiful. Their Aunt Amy is pretty too. She should be a model.
Love Mom
I am so jealous!! can't wait to hold each one!! Love the pix (as always, Alli is adorable), and soo sooo soooo happy that they are all doing so great with the bottle-feeding and weight gain. Counting the days...
Alli is such a crack up! Glad to see the triplets are doing well they will be home in no time!!
