Big Babies

We had our 28 week appointment this morning and got great news again! Everyone is thriving and doing phenomenal.  Even though this was supposed to just be a "quick check" week, the doctor decided to go ahead to do a growth scan just to see how big everyone is getting.  Our updated weights are:

Hudson- 2lbs 15oz

Dylan- 3lbs 1oz

and the new Heavyweight Champion of the Womb:

Sloane- 3lbs 9oz!!

The Doc was quite entertained with how big they are and couldn't be happier with their progress.  They all fall in the 70th percentile for size...for singletons! We are so lucky to have such healthy babies.  Not only are they healthy, but they are very active as well.  It was incredible to see them respond to the ultrasound.  Being able to see them move on the screen and feel it as well was out of this world.  Of course Dylan is still holding it down in his usual position, but Hudson and Sloane are both breech this time. 

Here is a pic of Hudson (B) and Sloane (C) putting their heads together.  The doctor commented that they were conspiring against Dylan (Baby A).  I assured him that he was right! 

For your entertainment

Running errands these days is a little more challenging and takes quite a bit longer than usual.  Not only do I move at a glacial pace, but I also have frequent pit stops to make.  However, what takes up the most time is stopping to talk to everyone who is curious about the giant belly.  Below is a compilation of some of the more entertaining comments I've received recently. 

"Oh wow!  A woman came through here earlier today and she was even bigger than YOU!"

-- Starbucks drive thru guy

"You look miserable!  Can I touch your belly?"

-- Cashier at Home Depot

"You look ready to pop!"

-- Stranger at Northstar Cafe

"That can't possibly be just one"

me: "No, it's triplets"

"Oh my God, that's a lot of diapers"

-- Macy's employee (likely of the month) enlightening me 

"It looks like a shield"

-- Davis, 4 year old, professional awesome kid

Just thought you'd like a sampling of the comments.  Never a dull moment!
