On September 5, 2008 I gave birth to 4 beautiful babies Samantha, Bridgette, Theodore "Teddy" and Madeline. Nine days later on September 14, 2008 Madeline was called to Heaven. So begins my journey of raising my Quadruplets as Triplets. They will always be my Quads!!

9 weeks old today!!!

Nobody made it home this week. They all had immunizatio​ns and eye exams which got them a little stressed so they all had some spells. However as of today there is a 90% chance everyone will be home before the end of next week.

Gr​andma came to visit the babies, she held everyone for the first time. They all loved time with Grandma!! :)

Here are some updates:

​Samantha - Weighs in at 6 pounds 3 ounces!!! Her eye exam on Tuesday showed her eyes to be mature!! YAY!! Next exam in 10-12 months!!! :) She had some troubles with constipatio​n over the week, which made her very very tired and angry. She is much better now!!

Br​idgette - Weighs in at 5 pounds 1 ounce!! Her eye exam showed her eyes to be regressing from ROP!! This is a good thing, she has a follow up in 2 weeks. Also she is still on oxygen, so today she was given an oral dose of steroids and they are hoping this will give her the little push she needs to get off the oxygen help. She is the best at feedings.

Teddy - Weighs in at 5 pounds 1.5 ounces!! His eye exam showed that they are still immature. He has a follow up in 2 weeks. Hopefully they will be mature at that point, and then his next one would be in 10-12 months!! He is doing great and may come home a day before Samantha, it really is anyones game at coming home.

As For Me - I do not think the nursery will be ready. We have bassinets for everyone so they will be in our room for the first few months. We are still waiting for the cribs that we ordered 6+ weeks ago to come in. We were told last week they would be on on Weds this week, now they are still 2 weeks out, UGHHH. Also Miss Bridgette's car seat is not in and wont be in for even longer than the cribs (it was suppose to be in on Weds as well). So now I am looking online to try and find hers to get it overnighted so I can cancel from the store I ordered from. Stress not needed. (Sorry for complaining​, I don't get bothered that easy and this really bothers me)

But all in all most is good stress awaiting the babies home coming!!

Please pray that all babies do well and are able to come home this week!!
