Obviously its been a while since I had time to write on our journal, guess that I have been a little busy! LOL!

THe babies are doing good.  We have had a lot of sickness at our house and had a very scary week and weekend.  Harlow and Hadleigh had the "crud" first at our house, it knocked Haddy out for 2 days she didn't do anything but lay on the floor downstairs and sleep. Harlow had a runny nose and horrible cough. Took them to the doctor got some nebulizer treatments and antibiotics for them.  Then I got it, then Maggie got it. I took all 3 of them and had them tested for RSV. Maggie's came back weekly positive(whatever the hell that means) and Blair and Harlow came back negative.  Wednesday night Maggie didn't look very good at all.  Harlow had an appt. with our Peditrician in Norfolk on Thursday for her belly button so I took off with her early Thursday morning.  My mom stayed with the other 4 girls.  I called to ask Matt something at about 230 and when he answered I asked him what he was doing and he said I am at the hospital, you talk about your heart stopping!  I freaked, of course I was also driving in Norfolk, he decided to take Maggie to have her looked at.  She was really gray in color and just not breathing really well.  They did some tests on her at the hospital and then decided they were going to put her in the ambulance and take her to Norfolk.  So I was just going to wait for them to get there.  So Harlow and I went into Walmart to kill time and wait for them.  Tara then calls and tells me they have decided not to take any chances and they have called the LifeNet for her! AGAIN heart stops beating.  They were going to fly her to Children's in Omaha.  Matt calls then and says go ahead and get started on my way to Omaha that Jacque was going to bring him down there and they would be leaving soon.  I stopped at Arby's to grab something to eat, change Harlow's diaper and feed her and then took off for omaha.  I beat the helicopter by 2.5 hours!  Matt beat the helicopter by a few minutes!  Needless to say I was pissed and thats just another fine highlight of living in the middle of NOWHERE!!!  My biggest fear while I was pregnant with the triplets was of something horrible happening after they were born and being so far from civilization, well it happened.

Maggie was hospitalized from Thursday night till Sunday night, we got home late last night and she is doing much better.  We had really great care at Children's and excellent nurses.  She did give us TONS of scares though.  There were several times she quit breathing on us, its such a horrible feeling.  we are all doing much better today, and they all have a checkup on Wednesday so hopefully they are much better!

Other than all that! LOL! The girls are doing good, growing well and eating great!  We are very lucky, they were born healthy and other than this sickness have been healthy.  I ran into my college roommate at the hospital in Omaha and her little boy has been in the hospital since the day he was born, 10 months ago. I feel so sorry for Jaime as I felt so helpless just watching Maggie laying there struggling for 3 days, I can't imagine what 10 months would be like. I think about you often Jaime and hope Graham does get to come home soon!

People keep asking me how I do it and if I have help, other than my mom no I really don't have help. I have had a few people help out a couple times but I do most of it on my own, its easiest that way and it really isn't that bad. Do I long for more sleep in a night of course but I think any mom of a newborn does that! ;)

We are anxious for spring and summer to arrive as we have a triple stroller now and can go for walks!! YAY!

Thanks for keeping Maggie and all the rest of us in your thoughts and prayers, it really was a scary time and I am so glad she is doing better.  Now we are just praying that Peanut-Blair doesn't get it because so far she hasn't had any symptoms and she is much smaller than the other 2 girls.

I will try to update more often! HAHA! :)
