I am sorry

Babies I know I have not written to you in a long time. Nana has been spending most her free time coming to see you. I love it in the morning when one of you wakes up at a time and I get to spend quiet time with you.  Feeding you your bottle while talking to you and you watch my every move.  I hope it will be soon that you recognize me from week to week.  For now I think you just love people talking to you and you smile at whomever.

I miss you so much when I go a week without seeing you.  I now have a new car and I can come help when your mom or dad needs help.  I love the story they told me about going into the bathroom and melting down.  That is just what happens to new parents.  I can't imagine what it is like trying to handle 3 when they all need attention at the same time.

Like mommy said one day.  Because you are triplets there will things you will get to do that other babies do not get.  There will also be times that you won't get things that other children will get.  The one thing I know beyond a shadow of doubt is that you will get more love than most babies can.  You can count on that.

Love you bunches and now got to get back to work.

Love you to pieces, Nana.

Recognizing

Oh babies you are so good at recognizing your mom and dad's voice now. You were at your great aunt Tracie's this weekend and you were passed around like a ball. Everyone wanted to hold you and watch the sweet coo's you used your voice to produce. The sweet smiles always precluded that sweet baby talk. When mommy or daddy would talk you would turn your little heads to see where they were. Just needed to connect with your security in a room full of strangers.

You are growing so fast you are not getting to wear half your clothes. Jakers is growing the fastest. He is going to be nana's line backer if he keeps going.

Nana got to share in feeding you your first food, cereal. You gobbled it up like pro's. Now you are eating your cereal with a little applesauce mom said. Soon you will be on baby food and not taking as many bottles a day. You will be getting 3 meals a day and milk supplemented. Mommy is going to save you some food while she is away in Michigan. You won't need as much as you need now. You will be eating 3 times a day.

I am so proud of your mama. She pumps milk for you all day long. She spent the night with me, we had a girls night because she had to go to the Duluth office the next day. She would pump and pump and out would come your breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next few days.

She has really given you all a mother can give in every aspect of the word. She loves you so much and would lay down her life for you. She told me the other day that she would. She now has a taste of why a mama bear is so dangerous when she has cubs. Mama bears will always protect their cubs to the death if necessary.

Your daddy is doing such a good job of staying home and taking care of you guys. He loves his babies to pieces. He is the protective mommy too. You all are good babies and are such a joy to keep and be around. Sometimes one of you may have a tummy ache and cry but you always go back to being happy loving babies after it is over.

Well I won't get to see you this weekend, daddy isn't going to get to go on his camping trip but I will be with you in spirit. I will see you at the beach. I can't wait to show you off in front of my friends. Tell mom to bring your bumbo seats so you can all sit up and entertain us.

I can't wait for you to crawl and sit up. Nana's works out so she can sit on the floor and play with you. She is losing weight so she can be on your level at playtime. Don't need a nana with knee replacements and can't get down on the floor. Nana doesn't want to ever miss a play opportunity with her babies.

Gotta go and get back to work now. Love you to pieces.

SeeYou Soon

Babies I can't wait to see you this weekend. I missed last weekend and it has now been two weeks. I just can't go that long. If I work I will see you Friday. If I don't work it will be Sunday.

Your other great grandparents are coming to see you this weekend. I know they will be proud of you because you are such good babies.

I wish mommy had a scale so she could weigh you all again. Maybe she could put you on the scales in the vegetable dept. at Publix. They wouldn't mind I am sure.

Oh well I am at work and need to stop playing around on the computer so that is all for now.

Nana is working on getting a better car so she can see you more often. Soon, I must have patience. Love Ya Nana.

Angel Pictures

Babies, your mommy just sent me the sweetest pictures I have ever seen. You look like angels in the pictures. Your sweet faces with partial grins or sweet looks with your precious skin makes them incredible.

Mommy is up to something for mother's day and I can't wait to see what it is. I know it will great because she has you in the pics.

I missed you this weekend. I didn't get to see you. Nana worked most of the weekend. I hope to see you this coming weekend. I hope I get to give you a bath and lotion so you smell like Johnson & Johnson babies.

You are such good babies. You slept last night for over 7 hours mommy said. I don't want you to get big but I know I will love every phase you grow through. I love you...Love Nana

Wow It Has Been Awhile

You sweet babies. I have not written to you since you have gotten home. I now spend all my time working and spending time with you. I try to see you every week. I can't wait until you get back to Duluth and I can see you moe often.

You were born so healthy and strong. I am so proud of you. Now you are over 3 months old and you have started cooing and smiling all the time. You are staying awake more and looking closely at me and your toys. You are just perfect.

I miss you when I am not around but that will change soon. I know mommy is going to get a new job at the Duluth office.

I love to feed you and give you baths. Especially put that sweet baby smelling lotion on you. You are not a fan of lotion but nana knows how to hurry up and get the job done. I love dressing you up in your little outfits. You have so many to choose from. You are growing so fast you are not getting to wear lots of your clothes. That is ok, mom will have a big consignment sale soon.
That will give her lots of money to buy you lots of cool toys.

Your lives are filled with people who love you. I am so excited to see you change from week to week. You are my three little munchkins and I love you to pieces.

Sarah you actually called and talk to me the other day on the phone. Well, you cooed and that is what counts as talking for now. Jake and Luke talk to me all last weekend.

Can't wait to see you this weekend. Hopefully on Sunday....

Coming Home

I can't believe it. Jake and Luke are coming home tonight. I can't wait to get my hands on some babies. I can't wait to see them side by side so I can learn to tell them apart. I hope Kelly and Kurt can. I am sure they can. Sarah will be home in a matter of days. I hope she gets to come home on Sunday so I get to spend some time with her.

I can't wait to pamper and love on those babies. It is so amazing to watch your kids have kids. To see these little perfect beings come to life. What a miracle. Thank you God for the abundance you have given us. I am so grateful everyone is here and ok. Let us enjoy the give you sent to our family.

I love you babies and that includes you to mommy. Now you get to be a Mommy.

Love Ya
Nana.

I Miss You

It has been 5 days since I have seen you. I am so missing you. Now mommy is home and I can't see you until she and daddy are there. They have been coming up during the daytime and I have been working.

I have also been working on getting a better car so I can come see you more often when you go home. Not much working for me now but God has the perfect deal for me. I just don't know where it is. I am praying to get a used car I can afford and it not have any major problems. Maybe dad can find me one.

I miss you so much. Maybe I can come to see you when mom and dad come to see you this weekend. I can't wait because I don't want to go to many days with seeing you. You are eating and growing and getting over the setback we caused you by holding you too long.

I think I will text your mom now and ask when is it my turn to see you guys.

Love
Nana
