Yes, we do have moments of Insanity...

The babies are doing awesome and only get up once during the night to eat. Usually between 4am-6am. It's not always quiet leading up to the feeding however...most nights we have to tide over at least one baby until that feeding time. It's funny how they rotate which baby is fussy. One night it will be Madison, and the next it will be Mason...They like to take turns. Needless to say, yes, it is awesome that they only get up once to eat and we feel incredibly blessed to get this extra sleep, but sometimes it's not a deep sleep because of the babies fussiness. SO not having a full 7 hours of deep sleep sometimes at that early morning feeding my husband or I or both of us show signs of insanity.
This particular occasion was just over the weekend. I was feeding Evan and my husband was feeding Madison. He gets finished feeding her and realizes she messed her pants. He then goes to change her, opens her diaper and says, "Maddy....WHAT?......Oh.....this is Mason."
Yes, we do mix up our kids, and most frequently during the night.

Weight Update

The Trio will be 4 months old on the 18th of this month. CRAZY thought, I know.
I think I've already mentioned this but I'll just touch on it again...
The babies have to get the RSV (Synagist) shot to help protect them from getting RSV this winter season. They get an injection once every 28 days through the winter. So their last dose will probably be sometime in March. The shot is ridiculously expensive. They charge by the dose and they figure out the dose your baby needs based on their weight. So in preparation for the babies first shot they were weighed this past weekend.
Evan weighed in as the biggest (like always) at 11lbs. 9oz. Mason came in second at 10lbs. 14oz. Madison came in last at 9lbs. 14oz. We were expecting big numbers from Evan because he's gotten so big lately he fits perfectly in his size 3-6 month clothes, I think he'll be moving into 6-9 month clothes before he's 6 months old. Mason and Madison however we were shocked at how big they've gotten. We're so proud of our healthy babies, we're incredibly blessed that they're such good growers!

3 Months Old

Hard to believe it's been 3 months since the triplets were born.
They are now usually sleeping 6 1/2 hours every night.
Evan is eating around 5-6 ounces every feeding.
Mason and Madison are still only eating 4 ounces.
They all three have started responsive smiling and cooing.
They're pros at holding their heads up by themselves.
We just bought bumbo chairs last week and Evan is the best at sitting in them.
