On The Charts

Today marked the triplets 4 month doctor visit and shots. They were all champs, enduring three shots each. Each baby is growing fantastically and they even made it onto the normal growth charts. (Our poor little Rhys, born at 34 weeks, didn't hit this achievement for several years.) We were also given the green light to begin baby food and to begin weaning the breast milk! Yea for all the accomplishments!!!

This week our "little" Rhys turns 6! It seems like yesterday that he was a 5 pound, 10 ounce baby. Grandma & Grandpa Bjokne surprised him with a new swimming pool for the backyard. Our other pool had sprung one too many leaks and finally had to be thrown away. So, daddy went outside late at night and put it all together. We then left a birthday card where Rhys would see it first thing in the morning. He (and Griffen) were VERY excited about this new and improved watering hole. It's big enough for the whole family to enjoy! Happy birthday, buddy!
