33 weeks and still counting

Well, here we are!  33 weeks pregnant with triplets.  The reality of triplets is really starting to sink in.  Besides the constant movement inside me, the extremely huge belly gets in the way of EVERYTHING! :) A simple hug is no longer simple!

We are truly blessed!  When we started this venture, 33 weeks seemed like a lifetime away and that we would never reach that mark.  So, to see the calendar marked 33 weeks is amazing.  This  past week has been a little crazy.  I had an NST on Monday morning.  We didn't like the results, so Dr. Jimerson sent me to NRH to have another test done.  He wasn't happy with that one, so I was back in his office Tuesday afternoon.  Those results were pleasing so I got to wait until yesterday.  Joey and I went to our appointment at OU yesterday morning.  It was really good news.  Walker, or "Tank", like Dr. Williams called him weighs about 5 lbs.  Caroline weighs 3 lbs 15 oz.  Sarah weighs 3 lbs 9 oz.  They are doing great and get to stay for at least another week. YAY!  It has been comical because we keep thinking that we are going to deliver right after one  of these appointments, so my bag is packed and in the car everyday! :)

So, like I said "33 weeks and still counting" is truly our motto right now. Joey is being so encouraging.  I must say that I am to the "I'm ready" phase.  I am constantly reminded that with each day they are with me, they are better off and getting stronger.  I need prayers in that area. I won't lie...there have been days that I am discouraged and feel like delivery needs to happen ASAP.  But then I am reminded of how awesome it is to still be pregnant with 3 babies that are thriving!  We are truly blessed.  Please continue your thoughts and prayer, as we venture into the next week.
