Just got back from the hospital. We went there tonight so Zach and I could anoint and bless the triplets. All three are doing remarkably well, though that does not necessarily mean we are free from challenges ahead. The girls full names are as follows:
· Sophia Doris, the oldest and largest at 820 grams (1 lb. 13 oz.), now weighs 10 grams more than her birth weight, has very long arms like an ape, and very long feet like Ian Thorpe, the Australian swimmer. We think she will swim the butterfly.
· Jocelyn May, now 1 lb. 7 oz. the largest of the twins, does not like laying on her side, but does like sucking on a micro pacifier. The nurses cannot believe how loud she can cry. Jo is very comfortable on her tummy with her arms and hands tucked-in under her chin. We think she will swim the breaststroke.
· Isabella Maria (such a tiny little thing, weighing in this evening at one pound six ounces, up one ounce from yesterday and now taking-in one cc (cubic centimeter) of milk every three hours. Izzy spends all her time facing up and likes to kick her left leg. We think she will swim the backstroke.
Will do out best to get you some pictures soon. Go Cardinals!
With love,
James Edward
