Almost 1 week now

It's been almost one week now, and everyone is doing well. Lisa can walk much easier now that she isn't carrying all that weight around she had while the little ones were inside. She still gets very sore if she bends/moves the wrong way and puts pressure on the incision, but otherwise is really feeling good.
Dad is fine too. He went back to work yesterday. At work they had a notice posted on the company bulletin board about the triplets and the three initial pictures that were posted on the internet. The boss held a meeting around 1 p.m. yesterday, and the department gave dad a card and gift certificate to Target. I let them know that Target is one of our favorite stores, and that it was also the place we were when Jonathan decided he wanted to be born.
The babies Aunt Donna is scheduled to visit with us today. We'll have lunch and pick up some of the old-fashioned pictures from Ritz Camera Center in the mall before heading to the hospital to see the kids.
All three babies are up to 14-15 cc's of forumula by bottle now. Their weight shows either small increases or decreases each day, which is normal. They are not expected to start an upward weight climb for another few days to week yet. They originally told us they might not hit their birth weight again until close to two weeks after birth.
That's all for now, as daddy must get ready for Aunt Donna to come.
