4 Months Old

Our happy boy

Sweet little Gracie girl

Curious, attentive Audrey

A glimpse of feeding time...

Awww, it looks like they're holding hands:)

Off for a walk...

Gettin' a little sunshine

The weather has been so nice, and even though the babies and I spend 99% of our time indoors, I've made an effort to get outside just a little bit each day - even if it's just setting the babies on our back deck in their seats for a few minutes or taking a quick walk around the neighborhood.

The babies have quite a few doctor visits coming up; regular weight gain checks and regular blood pressure monitoring (the girls seem to be fine, but Oliver's was a little high before leaving the NICU so he is being treated with meds that seem to be helping). At their appointment on Wednesday, Oliver was up to 11lbs 4oz, Audrey was at 10lbs 15oz, and little Grace was exactly 8lbs. She has been having some reflux / gagging issues and often loses some or all of her feeds so the doctor wants to monitor her weight gain carefully.

As I type this, Audrey is in her swing sucking on her binky, Oliver is sitting in his boppy seat studying the light in the hallway, and Grace is on her tummy (our best method of keeping the food down after feeding) loudly voicing her disapproval - which sounds quite a bit like an angry prehistoric bird:) Oh, I love my little babies!
