And The Winner Is...

So we just had one of our old Boston friends in town this past weekend to visit and we were surprised to find out that she did not know the sexes of the triplets.  We then realized that although we have told a lot of people, we have not actually announced it on the blog.  So...without further ado...would all those that voted for 2 boys and a girl please come to the front to claim your prize (which consists of a heart felt congratulations from Julie and I and a thank you for taking the time to vote in our poll).  While Julie and I originally wanted 2 boys and a girl, you could probably guess that as soon as we found out what we were having, Julie changed her mind and wished that it had been 2 girls and a boy because she wanted the girl to have a sister.  And you women try to claim that you aren't fickle :)  Anyway, the names for one of the boys is going to be Ryan Christopher and the girl is going to be Nadia Kathleen.  The second boy is being kept a secret since a) we don't know it yet and b) we need to have something that is a surprise for everyone.

On the progress front, Julie has had a couple doctor's appointments over the past couple weeks including a quick visit today and we are happy to report that everything is going well.  Last week Julie had to take the "extended" diabetes test after failing the "short test" during a previous visit.  Thankfully she found out today that she passed and therefore one more worry is taken care of.  The biggest issue right now is that the triplets are fond of having what Julie calls "a circus" at all hours of the day and night inside Julie's tummy which is cool for me to see and feel but not so cool for Julie.  I can't imagine trying to sleep with three little people kicking and squirming around in my belly...us men get it easy I tell ya.  Well thanks for checking in but it's late and I should be in bed so check back later this week for another post!
