14 Weeks

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything. I've taken the time to actually try to sleep or take a break when the children are down. Jackson now can roll from his belly onto his side (his favorite position to sleep in) and then onto his back. He hasn't figured out how to do this in reverse yet. His disposition is much more pleasant. He smiles and coos so sweetly. He's only fussy if he's hungry, sleepy or if he has placed a gift in his diaper that needs to be removed. LOL! Matthew is pretty much the same. He doesn't like to nap. He sleeps a long time once he's sleep but the journey to the nap is a challenge. Matthew wakes in the morning happy like his father. He whines for someone to come and get him but as soon as I sing Good Morning to him he immediately breaks into a smile. He's a cuddly baby that listens intensly to every word you say. Little Miss Madeline is a sweetheart! She smiles with her entire mouth open and coos so sweetly. She seems to find her voice in the late evenings. She also has determined she would rather be awake than sleep in the evenings. This is why she is now yelling out when she's sleepy. Holding her close and offering her a pacifer seems to do the trick. She's usually sleep in minutes.



Bath time for everyone is still the same. No one loves. They all tolerate it.



We are now attending church service regualarly. The catch now is to get there on time. We are working on it each week. It's a lot of work to prepare three babies to go out for a few hours at a time. A lot of planning and packing is required.



With regards to their health; they are doing well. They've begun their Synergin injections for RSV. To learn about what RSV is and how it affects babies, especially preemies see http://www.synagis.com/what-is-rsv.aspx/.



Madeline is now 10 lbs 12 oz

Matthew is now 9 lbs 5.5 oz

Jackson is now 9lbs 8.5 oz.



I dvr a show called Handy Manny which Madeline and Jackson watch and seem to enjoy. They sit very quietly while it's on. Sometimes my recording interupts Marcus' football viewing, especially on the weekends. I laugh when I hear him yell from the bedroom because the television changes in the middle of a play. I tell him it's all for the kids! LOL! We are enjoying the sweeties every day!
