The triplets have had their blessing

The triplets had their blessing last Sunday. Robert was pretty nervous, but made it through quite well. Both sets of grandparents were there and all but 1 of Robert's siblings were there and all but 1 of Shelley's siblings were there. The circle was pretty large and they were barely able to put a hand in to hold each baby.

Grandma Matthews made some really nice blessing outfits for the babies. They looked really spiffy.

Pauline and Michael of Robert's family had to leave right after the blessing to make it home at a decent hour, but the rest gathered at our house after church for a stuffed potato dinner. Our house was pretty hoppin.

The babies have doubled in size

The triplets are now almost 3 months old. They have all more than doubled their weight. They are now:

- Mark: 8 lbs. 9 oz.
- Becky: 10 lbs. 4 oz.
- Jared: 10 lbs. even

They all seem to be sleeping better at night, but we still have to feed them every 4 hours at night.

Just after Christmas, Robert's brother-in-law, Curtis, came down to do some yard work for us in the back yard. He did a great job, but we didn't expect him to tackle the front yard. Well, we finally hired someone to do our front yard. We had it done a week ago. We had a lot of ugly vegetation going on that we had all removed. We have include a before and after picture.
