Great grandtriplets!

Fiona, Hannah, and Maya had a wonderful first Christmas at their great grandparents' house. I haven't had time to finish posting all the pictures yet, but here is a great one of the girls with their great grandmother. I'll be sure to post the rest of the pictures soon.

And here's a video of Hannah and Fiona together, looking very much like identical twins:

Last weekend, we got a couple of cute videos of Maya making her funny faces with her aunt Jodi. Here they are:

Enjoy!

Welcome home!!!

Maya, Hannah, and Fiona are all home together now!

Maya came home last Wednesday, Hannah on Sunday, and Fiona on Monday. Thank you so much to all of the nurses at the NICU at Beth Israel, especially their primary nurses Stacy, Brett, and Donna.

Monday night we had bath time, and afterwards the girls got to wear the hats and blankets that Evan's sister made for them. They look fantastic.

Here's a little video of the girls all together, wrapped up and snuggly in their new blankets. Enjoy!

Happy one month birthday!

Happy one month old to Maya, Hannah, and Fiona!

Maya is on track to come home in the next day or two, and Hannah and Fiona should be home within a week most likely.

All 3 girls have their feeding tubes out, and they look great. Actually Hannah and Fiona had pulled their tubes out (again), and the nurses decided they would wait to see if they needed to have them put back in. So far, so good- everyone is eating the right amount. Here are some pictures of the girls without tubes and tape on their faces!

And here's a video of the girls in the crib without their tubes. Enjoy!

Dinner time

All 3 girls are doing great, growing and eating like superstars. They just have to work on finishing their bottles before they're ready to come home, so right now eating is the big goal.

They're getting so big! As of today, Fiona is 4 pounds, 7 ounces; Maya is 4 pounds, 12 ounces; Hannah is 4 pounds, 14 ounces. 5 pounds is coming, which seems so huge.

We had great visits with with both their Uncle Josh and Aunt Jill and then their grandparents Steeves this weekend. Fiona even finished her bottle for her granddad.

Their great-grandmother Fee made the girls some adorable hats, which fit them perfectly. Here are some recent photos.

Jodi has taken some photos recently of the babies:

Right when the girls were born.

Bottle feeding time from last weekend.

Thank you Jodi!

And here's a recent video of the 3 girls- Fiona is napping, but Hannah and Maya are busy keeping each other busy.

Enjoy!

3 weeks old!

The girls are 3 weeks old now, and growing so quick! Two days ago, Fiona was just shy of 4 pounds; Maya was 4 pounds, 4 ounces; Hannah was 4 pounds, 7 ounces.

Maya is still the champion eater, we think she's in a race to come home first.

Last night, I gave all the girls a bath. At the end, you use a toothbrush to comb out the little bit of hair they do have. Of course, I had to take a photo of Maya holding her hairbrush.

The rest of the photos are here- enjoy!

Fashion show

The girls have new hats and blankets, hand-knitted by volunteers for the NICU. Here are some photos- they look great.

And here are two videos- the first is before they were fed, all 3 are waking up and dancing around a bit. The second is after feeding, everyone is all tired and ready for a nap.

Enjoy!
