Happy one month old triplets! Happy mommies!

"When will the triplets be out of the NICU and get to go home to the loving care of MacNorlin and our village...?"  

That is the question of our lives at the moment, and the question we get asked all the time.  The babies are doing very well and at the moment their goal is to learn to take all eight of their feedings by bottle or breast.  When they accomplish that they will begin to be prepared by the nurses, doctors and by us for the transition home.

"But exactly when will it be clear that they can come home and will that be one at a time or all three at once?!?!"

We wondered too!  It could be that they come home individually or all three at one moment...only time and faith will tell.  But we likely will be given a few day to 1 week notice when that moment comes! You will be kept "posted"- pun intended...

 For now- Let's celebrate that these babies are getting incredible care and that they are ONE MONTH OLD.  Their due date will ever be August 3rd, so developmentally they will always have that two month lag, or head start depending on how you look at it, to interpret and ponder how they are becoming themselves in the world.  For the moment- They are growing BIG and napping WELL and becoming more baby like unique in their own ways.

Here is our question for you then!  Can you tell them apart in this blog yet and can you observe their personalities individual like we can?
