I was asked for another update on the triplets so here we go.
The babies are 10-1/2 months old and this is the stage that I absolutely love, when they have their own personalities and love to see Grandma and Auntie Nona.
They are finally sitting up and still army crawling although they get up on their knees and take a couple of crawls, especially Anna and Justin.
The other day when we came, Connor came army crawling across the living room towards me and was so happy to see me. We hardly have time to get our coats off and settled in before they want to be picked up. So cute, just melts my heart. It's very hard when all three want to be picked up and there are only two of us. So you take the ones that are the most in distress. Lol...Or try to get down on the floor with them which isn't easy anymore.
So Connor is our laid back baby, Justin is our wild child and Miss Anna is our strong willed girl and very feisty and wants her way.
We still go 2 days a week to help out so Ramie can get some things done. She has started working from home for about 10-15 hours a week. She is one busy super momma.
So I have only shared this with a couple people, but this summer they will by moving away from us, but they are just going to Vancouver, WA or West Linn, OR (about 3 hour drive from us). Brad has been promoted in his job and it is headquartered in Portland. When I heard that and they wanted me and my sister to move down there too, it was a no brainer for me since my BFF lives in West Linn. It is very complicated because my sister and I both own our house together and she doesn't want to miss out on the babies growing up, but her son (who she doesn't see often) lives here and then there is dad too. So she may come too but she has a hard time making easy decisions. Lol...
The thought of moving is sort of overwhelming, so keep us in your thoughts and prayers that it all works out. And now for pictures.
Bath time. Look who might be our next soccer star. (Justin)
Anna with what looks like a hairy arm, but it actually one of the boy's heads.
So, when we had all of that snow in February, they got them all dressed up and took them for a hike around the neighborhood. They can hardly wait to take them hiking. They aren't going to let having triplets slow them down.
These were Ramie's Cabbage Patch dolls when she was little wearing clothes that the babies wore. They try to always pose them in the same order: Connor, Anna, Justin.
The little "Empress" as she is known and is starting to act like it. It's cute now but wait. If she wants something or you to pick her up she has this little or not so little screech that she does. I guess they had their first dinner out with the babies, that Anna was not very happy and was creating quite a scene. Might be time to leave the babies home when going for dinner. HaHa….
Connor and Justin broke free from the baby room. They are on the move.
They just got a play yard for them and they love being in there with all of these balls.
And I'm not sure who is who in this picture. My guess is Justin is in the middle and Connor on the right. So much for putting them in order.
Aren't they so precious?
Connor & Justin.

They are finally interacting with each other.
Dad and Justin (I think)
So, the day Ramie went into the hospital this set of triplets had been born and two were going home. The third one had to stay in the NICU. They have become friends and were invited to the boys' first birthday party.
And I can't believe that in 1-1/2 months our babies are going to be celebrating their first birthday.
And last but not least, the boys are sporting their new headgear. They each have misshaped heads in the back so will have to wear these helmets for 2-3 months 23 hours a day. Luckily they don't seem to mind them. Now they can really go and not worry about their bumping their heads, but Anna could be in trouble if she gets hit by one or both of them.
Justin is left and Connor is right.
That's it for now, hope you enjoy....
Thanks for stopping by.

Love all these pictures Lin! They are just precious!
Oh my goodness, what fun they are Lin! How exciting to hear about your move closer to Colleen. I hope it all works out perfectly for your sister as well. Your little darlings look so busy. What a fun way to spend the day! Thanks for sharing your little ones with us. I look forward to these posts and always love to hear from you in my e-mail. Hugs~
Oh my gosh Lin...could these 3 be any CUTER?!! Absolutely LOVE seeing them all on the move...can only imagine how busy it is at their house!! And how exciting that you might be moving closer to Colleen...I will definitely say some prayers that all works out as you want!! Thanks so much for sharing all these wonderful pictures...I just want to pick each one of them up and hug away!! They really do make me smile!! Have a great week my friend!! :0)
Of course I enjoyed! You could do one of these photo stories every week and I would still love them, Lin! I don't know how you can tell Justin and Connor apart! I think their little helmets need a big initial sticker on the front. Hint, hint, craft grandma! And that's too funny about Empress. She hasn't let being born with two beefy brothers intimidate her at all! I used to love putting cartoon messages over the heads of photos like the one where the boys are escaping from the playroom. They are both clearly thinking something! Oh, I could go on and on. Just too fun! Thank you for sharing!!
I do wish you all the best of luck with whatever the future holds! And I pray that it can be done as smoothly as possible for all involved. If you need an extra pair of hands for any part of it, let me know!! Hugs, Darnell
Oh wow--the pictures just make me smile! What adorable babies--so fun to see how they're growing! MOVING?! I don't envy you, but there's no way you could let them leave without you--haha! Good luck with all the coming decisions & activities, Linda!
I get so excited when I see an update notification in my e-mail! The images you share give me my grandma fix!! I love seeing each one : )
I can surely relate to your feelings about moving - both the excitement and the concerns. I will be praying with you for peace in whatever you and your sister decide.
Thank you again for sharing!

Oh my gosh ... they are the swwetest, Lin!! Great pictures. I especially love the one with Justin and Connor having a conversation. They are growing up so fast! I'm happy to hear that you will move with the family and I hope your sister joins you. And the bonus is being close to Col! Thanks for the update Lin! xx
These children are so CUTE!!! I can see their personalities in their pictures and they look like such happy babies! I hope the move goes smoothly. You definitely have to move with them and having Col there is an added bonus. Sounds like this will be a big year for you! Thanks for sharing the babies with us.
Oh they are so adorable. I loved reading your update. Thanks for sharing it.
Good luck with the move. I hope everything goes well.
Love your sweet post...all the adorable baby photos are just precious!
Oh boy, I enjoyed every moment of this post, Lin! Moving sounds like a big ordeal, but the perks sound so worth it!
Oh my, they are the cutest! What a trio! I'd be moving with them too! They don't stay little long. I can't wait to see your pics of them walking and running! lol
