The Peacock Family

Today we took the babies for there 6 month Dr. visit although they will not actually be 6 months until December 27th. Dr. Ho was VERY impressed with there growth and development. He said that they are "advanced" for there age and being preemies. WOW what a great feeling as a parent to hear those words come out of his mouth!!!! Jason and I are SO proud of how well they are doing. Talk about making us feel good about how we are raising and taking care of them. We are so thankful that they are so healthy and right on track. It was also great to hear the nurses say how good our babies are. They did not cry or fuss the entire time.....well until they got there shots. I swear they are the happiest triplets that I know.

They got three different shots and they were not happy about it at all. Of course they all screamed but it only lasted for about a minute and then they were happy again.

They were not able to get the flu shot because they are not 6 months old yet. We will have to make an appointment in 2 weeks for that.

Cooper has been taken off all of his reflux medication (YAY!!!!). Aiden is only on two of the medications and Dr. Ho switched him to the same formula that Cooper is on, Similac Advance Early Shield and Landon is still on all three meds for his reflux and still on Similac Alimentum. He is having a harder time getting over his reflux, but he is taking a smaller dose of each medication. Landon will stay on Similac Alimentum for three more months and hopefully he will have outgrown his reflux by then. Landon also has a mild case of Bronchitis. He has an inhaler that he has to use three times a day.
