The triplets turned 8 months old on Friday and I really can't believe the time has gone so fast! They are starting to do something new and funny almost everyday. Their personalities are showing and they make us laugh! Will and Xander have started traveling. They're not crawling yet, but they will roll around the room to whatever they want, still sacrificing personal safety for the much desired toy. Xander has some bumps and bruises on his head from rolling into the chairs, coffee table and piano (see top picture). Will doesn't roll into anything, thank goodness (see second picture). When on their tummies, they will scoot forward for something they want, it looks like the beginning of an army crawl. Grace is still happy to sit up and play (see third picture). She still HATES her stomach. We listened to Nebraska's football game on Saturday, it wasn't on TV (see bottom picture). Saturday's game is on TV though, and we are having a party at our house, should be fun!
We had a follow up appt. at the NICU yesterday. The doctor was pleased with their development. She had them manipulate some big and small things, sit up, roll and do some other motor things and watched them play and babble. She is happy they're so strong and are "talking" a lot. They weighed them, but with their clothes on, so I think it was a little high. Will was 22 ish lbs, Xander was 20 1/2 lbs ish and Grace was in the 17 1/2 lbs range. All in all, a good report. We won't go back there until they are 12 months corrected age, which means 14 months in March.
