So we headed in for The Peaches two year checkup this past Monday + I was incredibly surprised to learn that they are not only on the charts for their actual age, but they are in the 50th percentile. For everything: height, weight + head circumference! Well, except for our little guy who is apparently trim + falls into the 15th percentile for weight. Anyway, they are doing perfectly well, their doctor had absolutely no concerns at all.
It is just crazy to see just how far they have come.
Two years ago, James was born at 2lbs 10oz + 14 inches.
Today, James weighs 24 lbs 6 oz + he is 34 inches tall.
Two years ago, Ella was born at 1lbs 10 1/2oz + 13 1/2 inches.
Today, Ella weighs 23 lbs 3 oz + she is 33 3/4 inches tall.
Two years ago, Cameron was born at 2lbs 7 1/2oz + 14 1/4 inches.
Today, Cameron weighs 23 lbs 12 oz + she is 33 1/2 inches tall.
On the way out, they got to choose a lollipop {one of their very favorite things at the moment} + Cameron refused to take one of her hands off of the stick to hold John's as we walked back to the car.
I just realized as I was writing this post that I forgot to blog about their NICU developmental follow up back in May! There really isn't much to report because they were on track {actually, ahead even, in most areas} for their actual age + were discharged from the program.
I cannot believe I am typing this since there were many moments when I never thought this day would come...but my premature babies are now fully caught up toddlers!

Awesome news!!! It's like you can finally stop holding your breath...I cannot wait to know what that feels like!!! Congrats Rach & Peaches!!!!
Such awesome news! The girls had their 2 year check up a few weeks ago and also came back with a clear bill of health (except for being behind with language which we already are working on).
Hooray for being caught up! I love that things are so great and "normal" that you forgot to blog about their NICU follow up; that says a lot!
What great news!!! We knew they were happy but so exciting to learn they are completely healthy, too! They are so precious, too!
Aw yay!! That is so exciting!
And adorable pictures as always. :)
that is so awesome!
Now that is a happy birthday present all in itself! 2 years ago, did you ever dream they would be doing so well?! Happy for you all....and I know what you mean about suckers. That's the ONLY reason mine actually look forward to the doctors office....'can we get a sucker'...sure sure, at least it's not the dentist's office!
Praise the Lord! Rach...that's AWESOME! And that they've been discharged from NICU...that's a bonus. So happy for you guys.
Glad they're doing so well! Great weights!
Tiny, fragile, beautiful babies that have become Healthy, Happy, Thriving, Beautiful (could they be any cuter? I don't think so!) Toddlers! Such great, amazing, encouraging news! I know as mom's of multiples and preemies we all worry and just want to make it to that 2 year mark to breathe and say...Ok...everyone's OK... Isn't it nice to know your trio is even Better than OK? They're Amazing and I have to say....you and John and Lydia are the reasons why! You've done an amazing job. Now take a breath and tell yourself GREAT JOB!!! This is all wonderful news!
What a fun time for you! I love the toddler stage :-)
Oh wow - they are just so big and grown and well, not premmie babies anymore. Once again congratulations.
That's awesome news!
