Triplets - 12 Months Old - Can't Believe They Are ONE!

We ALL survived the FIRST year! I can't believe we have 3 ONE-YEAR olds!!!

Here are their stats from their one-year check up..

Cooper

29.25 inches

23 lbs. 10 oz.

 

Tucker

30 inches

22 lbs.

 

Carter

29.5 inches

23 lbs. 12 ounces

 

Cooper and Carter are similar size, and Tucker is our "li'l" guy, but is one inch taller still.

 

Seriously - this is the best group shot I could get. They kept wanting to dive off the couch....

 

 

Here are some updates as of today (already half way to 13 months)

COOPER

Can stand on his own without pulling up, and walks everywhere!

Swings his arms when he walks

Loves to dance.

Loves to wrestle with Carter.

Loves to mumble, and has said, "Mama" a couple times.

Can clap and blow raspberries

Can throw a ball

Cooper likes to cross his li'l feet a lot. I love it!

TUCKER

Can still stand on his own, and is still working on walking without wobbling. He gets better every day!

Most vocal says "Da-dee" and "Mama" and screams at Winky

Shake his head "no no"

Can clap and blow raspberries

Raises his arms if you say, "so big"

Can throw a ball, loves playing with balls, and looking at books

Tucker is still the most emotional and moodiest - still a "Mama's Boy"

 

CARTER

Can stand on his own and walks/runs everywhere

Waves his arms/claps

Jabbers the least, but has said, "Mama"

He tends to be the most independent

Likes to scrunch his nose to be silly and breath in and out loudly

Will walk to Josh with his arms up to be picked up

Carter likes to play and climb on their mini-slide from GGma Bevy

Carter is our busy li'l guy and always seems to be into something.

 

We are down to just two bottles a day (one in the morning and one at night). I am still pumping once a day, but will be done soon. We plan to drop their morning breast milk bottle soon. They are drinking whole milk now during the day. They LOVE eating, and so far, are good eaters and haven't really rejected any food. They love feeding themselves. Tucker eats the slowest, but is the most focused and seems to enjoy eating the most. Their favorite food right now is grapes. 

 

They are eating 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. I seriously can't believe how much they seem to eat.

 

Nothing new with teeth, C and C still have 8, and Tucker still only has his bottom two.

 

They love watching TV, especially Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. They will all stop and dance to "Hot Dog Song."

 

They are still napping twice a day, and sleep from about 7pm until 7:15am

 

They are still in love with their big sister and love watching her and getting into her things if given the opportunity.

 

Sorry this is short and sweet. I'm afraid if I don't post this today, it may never get done!

 

 

A big Thank You to all our family and friends

that came to the boys' party last month.

Your thoughtfulness and generosity was overwhelming,
