Girl Power!

It is amazing how you can see the details in their spine, fingers, mouth and nose!

We met with our perinatologist in downtown Houston yesterday and had a very detailed ultrasound. All our girls are growing beautifully and they all look healthy and active. Baby A is 10 oz., baby B is 11 oz. and baby C is 11 oz. Baby A was making us laugh because she is very limber and kept moving her feet up by her head and was laying on her back. Baby B's head is next to Baby A but she is laying on her tummy. Baby C was named "queen of the mountain" because she is stretched out at the very top and seems to have the most room. I can feel them moving and it is just amazing to think there are 30 toes in there! Caden is telling everyone that he has three baby sisters, so we know he is going to be an awesome big brother. We meet with our doctor Dec. 11, so hopefully we can keep our plans to go to Disney World and see our family for Christmas in Orlando and Dallas. Yes- we planned the trip before we knew we were expecting triplets! Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers.

It's a.... It's another... no way! It's another....

Nothing should surprise us anymore after hearing the news we are expecting triplets, but we were surprised again today. These funny babies just want to give us a big surprise party at every doctor visit. So far, it looks like we will be doing lots of pink laundry because we are having 3 girls! All three babies are doing well and are very active according to our doctor. Please remember to keep us in your prayers. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We are three times more thankful this year as God continues to bless our growing family!

Triple Blessings


We had our second ultrasound today at 14 weeks and our doctor said all three babies look great. Baby A seemed to be the most willing to take a good picture today. On the monitor we saw all babies moving in their own sack. They are all transverse and stacked top, middle, and bottom. (I had imagined them lined up across my belly). Our prayers have been answered and all babies are healthy at this point. Our next appointment is Nov. 16, so hopefully we'll find out if we are having boys or girls. Our doctor said the chances of them being all boys or all girls is 12%. Thank you for your prayers, emails and thoughts of our growing family!

One...Two...Three...


In case you haven't guessed, this is our announcement that we are expecting! If you aren't surprised yet, just wait... We saw the first ultrasound today and found out we are having triplets. We are still in shock right now and we aren't sure how much sleep we will get tonight. We are excited and can hardly believe it. The list of "things to do" is overwhelming right now. Our main concern is for the babies to be healthy. The due date is in April, but because there are three little ones, the goal is to make it to 30 weeks. Please keep us in your prayers!
