My Babies Are TWO!!

How did it happen? How is it possible? Two years have gone by since the girls were born weighing 4.8, 4.12 and 5.2 pounds - they were so big for triplets but yet they were so incredibly small. They have grown so much in the past two years in every way.

It's so hard for me to believe this is them! They don't even look the same...



Both pictures are left to right: Julianna, Rachel and Alyssa



I can't believe how little hair they had!!





Just enough hair for a small bow...



The girls with a bit more hair...



And these are the girls today - waving bye to their mom, telling me they are growing up, they are getting bigger, they aren't my babies anymore.



I am grateful to have made it through two whole years and on the other hand I can't believe that two whole years have gone by. Happy 2nd Birthday Julianna, Rachel and Alyssa! I can't wait to see you grow through so many more years ahead.

P.S. I didn't make the b-day cake - a friend in my moms of multiples group did and she did a great job! Everyone loved it! Huge plus of a moms group is all the cool moms you meet - even if they "just" have twins :)

What great pictures! I can't believe it. You thought you had big babies. I was a full month behind you and we had each had one that weighed 4.8. My trio were 4.3, 4.4, and 4.8 at 32 weeks. Crazy huh?
Happy birthday to Rachel, Julianna, and Alyssa!

I am a mom of "just" twins and I am amazed at you higher order multiple mommies! Like you, we have done it without help (to this day they still have not had a babysitter or been to daycare). The only one to have watched them for an afternoon and the night my hubby had his accident is a TRIPLET mommy! God love her, and YOU! God gave me exactly what He knew I could handle and He gave you the same! AWESOME job Mom!!!
Since I missed the first two years, I look forward to sharing in the MANY more to come! Happy birthday girls!
