Triplet poem

I thought that this was neat.

TRIPLETS
So many good things come in threes, Like Musketeers and ABC's.
But triplets are the best of all From little ones to those quite tall.
And from the time such life begins, It's extra laughter, triple grins.
With joys and mischiefs multiplied And two defenders by each side.
So much alike, forever linked, And yet they're also quite distinct.
They share a birthday and a name, But moods and tempers aren't the same.
From days of youth till life is done, It's one for all and all for one.
God made us novel and precise, But special folks -- He made them thrice!

Big Ultrasound!!!

Today we had the big ultrasound done. We know for sure that Baby A is a Boy. We know for sure that Baby B is a Boy. I guess what we know about Baby C is that they are the shy baby. In the last ultrasound the Dr thought that C looked like a girl but in the one before that he thought boy so who knows. I guess we will have to wait and see on that one. I hope they show the goods next time because I didn't really want to be surprised. Everything else with the babies looked good. Baby A is measuring right where he should be and Baby B is a couple of days behind A and C is a couple of days behind B. They said it is within the normal range and there was nothing to worry about, so I wont.

Baby A = Boy

Baby B = Boy

Baby C = ?

20 weeks 4 days

Today I was measured with a tape measure for the first time. I am measuring about 30 weeks today. The doctor is still sure that baby A is a boy but he isn't sure about the other 2. Today he said that he thinks that they could possibly both be girls. So, we went from 2 boys 1 girl, to maybe 3 boys, to maybe 2 girls 1 boy. I am honestly fine with whatever gender they are I just hope that they are all healthy and that they aren't born too early. The idea of having a really early preemie is scary and I think that it would be sad to leave them in the hospital when I go home. I know that most likely they will be in the hospital for awhile after they are born but I hope not for too long.

Are You Pregnant?

Yesterday I was at Safeway getting food from the deli. I was waiting in line behind an old lady ordering a sandwich. The girl working at the counter was so ditsy. Every time the lady would name an item she wanted on her sandwich the girl would say, "oh you go girl." After she finished with the lady it was my turn to order, then she looks at me and asks if I am having a baby. I had every intention that the first person that asked me that I was going to say no just to mess with them. This girl however wasn't the brightest so I figured messing with her would be a waste of time. So anyways, I guess that I officially look pregnant enough for strangers to ask.
