Triplet Update

Chad, Dolores and I went down on Sunday to visit the triplets.  They are getting so cute and filling out more and more everyday!!  I held Ben the whole time while I was there, Dolores held CJ, and mommy kangaroo held Austin.  It is amazing how much Austin and Ben are starting to look a like.  As of right now, Austin and Ben look like Mommy and CJ looks like Cory. 

As of Sunday Austin is now 3 lbs!!!! YIPPEE! What a milestone.  Ben was 5 lbs 15 oz. and CJ was 6 lbs 5.5 oz.  It is remarkable how far they have come.  The BEST news of the day was that depending how CJ's ROP test (test on their eyes) comes back, CJ may get to come home in  7-10 days.  That is the earliest any way!!!  Basically  with the ROP levels they needed to increase oxygen saturation to decrease the levels ROP.  If his ROP comes back good, then they can start to decrease his oxygen levels and see how he does with that. 

Before any of the triplets get to come home, Laura and Cory will also need to stay over at the hospital to learn about the oxygen machines they will be taking home with them. 

Here are some pictures of our visit:
