Introducing our DISer triplets! (New pics page 4)

[Lease]

Andrew (5 lbs 4 oz) Parker (5 lbs 9 oz) and Nicholas (4 lbs 13 oz) arrived on April 24th at 9:37, 9:38 and 9:38 am. They were born at 35 weeks after 5 weeks of hospital bed rest. Everyone is healthy and doing well. I was discharged from the hospital last Wednesday, but the boys are still there acting their age. Until they have mastered sucking, swallowing and breathing at the same time they won't be able to come home. We are hoping to have them home in the next week.

Sadly, we won't be going on the Podcast cruise, but somehow I don't think we'll have a chance to be bored. Since the boys are souvenirs from our Sept 08 WDW trip (probably an over share) I think we'll be waiting at least a few years before we tempt fate and risk more Disney magic.

Here's Dad in the delivery room very happy and proud of our little guys:

Finally because I have the feeling I'm going to be one of those parents with a dozen photos of my kids on hand at all times, and they just are so darn cute (I'm a bit biased), here are our boys at 1 week old:

Congrats! They're beautiful! And way to go for making it to 35 weeks! What a feat with triplets. Pretty good sizes too. Bless you for enduring 5 weeks of hospital bedrest (I did a few days with my twin pregnancy, and 4 month of bedrest at home and boy it was not easy).

Congratulations on the boys! They are so adorable and will bring you years and years of happiness (and a little bit of craziness too!). Here's to bringing them home soon. Rest up and wishing you a speedy recovery!

Any ideas?

Andrew and Parker are identical for sure (shared a chorionic sac & placenta). Nicholas had his own sac so is probably fraternal but could be identical still (I certainly can't tell by looks!). We'll have to wait for blood types, or DNA if those are the same, to find out.
