This week the boys both rolled over for the first time! Actually, Caleb was first! He rolled over on Thursday. Charlie rolled over on Saturday for the first time and did it again Sunday! They went from their tummies to their back. Tonight, Charlie kept trying to roll over, but Caleb was in his way. Charlie just kept resting his head on Caleb’s back until he eventually spotted the intriguing documentary techie Daddy was watching about Steve Jobs. So, Charlie was mesmerized as well!
All of the babies have been loving this new ‘Gentile Giraffe’ by Cloud b I bought. We’ve affectionately named it Ju-Ju. It’s a stuffed animal with a sound machine inside. It has 4 different sounds, two different timer options, and a volume control. As with many things in our home, I just don’t have enough to go around. I think the the triplets are going to learn this trend at an early age. I REALLY need to purchase a few more of these…..or maybe the babies need to learn to fuss one at a time so that they can share Ju-Ju a little more easily!
Friday night before their bath we did another weight check. Alayna weighed in at 11lbs 3.6oz. Caleb was 11lbs 6.8oz. And Charlie was 11lbs 4oz! Alayna’s been bulking up a bunch, catching up with her brothers!
Here are a few more random pics from this week.
Everyday, Audrey – the perfectly doting big sister that she is – tells the kids stories! She uses various toys as props, and very easily, captivates the babies. It’s truly uncanny to see how they watch her and clearly, adore her. The babies have been known to listen to her stories, for over 30 minutes. Audrey is such an amazing girl! Friday, I snapped some pictures of her telling the boys a story about the ‘very hungry caterpillar’. She chose this activity as her little study break from homeschooling!
I’m so impressed with Audrey~ she’s such a great big sister! We have a Ju Ju as well. Kaylee hasn’t been that interested in it… I”ll have to try again. They are so cute with their arms around it!
You have such a beautiful family!
Yay for rolling over! Abel rolled over from tummy to back twice yesterday for the first time too! Belle hasn’t yet.
I found your blog when I did a google image search for “thawed embryos.” We transferred today into a surrogate and so begins the terrible wait and trying to learn as much as I can from the embryo pictures of one B embryo and 2 C. At least we passed the first hurdle and all three survived the thaw. Like you we have an older daughter, but since we’re disconnected physically from the procedure because we are using a surrogate, she doesn’t know. Anyway, my point is I was so glad to see your three little ones growing strong outside of the petri dish. Beautiful children!
