Welcome Sullivan Triplets!

They have arrived! Michael and I are in awe at how beautiful and wonderful our three new babies are. I have a few minutes to type this up and add a couple pictures. I'm on percosset now and get a little loopy so I'll have to make this quick.

The Sullivan triplets were born on Friday, November 28th.
Alaina Katherine was born first at 8:06 am and weighed 4lbs 8oz. Not sure what her length is yet.
Kiera Elizabeth was born second at 8:07 am and weighed 4lbs 5oz and is 17 inches long.
Liam Michael was born last but also at 8:07 am and weighed 4lbs 3 oz and is just over 17 inches.

Kiera and Liam are in the NICU but are doing well. Kiera's red blood count was a bit high so they has to give her an IV before they could feed her. The IV is in the top of her head since she's a little peanut. Both her and Liam are lazy eaters and are being treated like preemies even though they really aren't. Michael and I got to hold and feed them for the first time this morning.

Alaina is in the regular nursery and is doing well. All three babies love to be wrapped up and held rather than eating.
Alaina and Kiera look so much alike. We just haven't been able to a picture of them together

Here are a couple pictures of the babies until we an get more uploaded.

Kiera


We'll post more pictures later and hope to get some good ones of all three together.
We should be able to take Alaina home with us but not sure if the other two will be coming home on the same day or not.

OK - percossets have kicked in and I'm falling asleep. Will post again soon!

Dee & Mike- We're both so happy for you two. We know you have waited for this blessing for such a long time. Having three beautiful children somehow makes the wait seem so worth while. We're so proud of you guys. If there is anything we can do for you, I know you'll let us know. You've made this Grandmother and Granfather soooo happy. Love you all. Grammy and Grampy Poore
