Our little munchkins

I am finally getting around to posting another blog entry. The triplets have been keeping us super busy. They are getting so big by the day. Just this past week, all three of them have started turning over from their backs to their stomachs and vice versa non stop! As soon as you lay them on the floor, they are constantly rolling over (which isn't so nice when you have wood floors). It's amazing how just a few weeks ago they would accidentally roll over and now they do it constantly. They are really enjoying their rattles, teething rings, and various other toys as they can purposely grab them now and instantly put them in their mouths.
As their 6 month birthday approaches, we are getting excited about starting solid foods. Our pediatrician recommended that we wait until they are 6 months old to start feeding them solids. We are just 2 weeks away and anticipating this momentous occasion. With three babies eating for the first time, we'll need bibs, floor mats, wall protectors, and lots of hand wipes! :) We will be sure to post pictures of them eating for the first time.
The babies still aren't quite sleeping through the night. Caleb absolutely refuses to skip a feed, no matter how tired his parents are. He doesn't like to go more than 4 hours at night without a bottle. His cry usually ends up waking up his sisters and suddenly they realize that they are hungry too! So, needless to say, we are hoping that the start of solid foods will lead to more sleep at night which means more sleep for us parents. Here are some recent pictures of the babies.

Entertaining three babies at once can sometimes be a challenge...
