How old? 6 Months. Can you believe they are 1/2 year old?!?!
Our weights? (Estimates) S: 13 lbs 2 oz T: 14 lbs 10 oz M: 13 lbs 7 oz
The girls are wearing 3-6 months and 6 months clothes so we are staying pretty true to age.

Our sleeping patterns? The girls are getting bigger and have decided that two 2 hour naps is WAY TOO MUCH sleep. Now, one sleeps good during the morning nap and not so good in the afternoon while another one may sleep only one hour each time, and the third will not sleep well in the morning and fall asleep too early for her afternoon nap so she wakes up before it is time. Let's just say what free time I had is slowing dwindling. Normally, I have at least one baby with me while I try to pump. We are also trying to transition the girls from napping in the swings to their cribs which also doesn't help.
At night, Mallory has got it down. She has only needed to be fed once in the middle of night in the past 4 weeks. Normally we put her down at 7:45 PM and she is quiet until about 8 AM. There are those nights that we still need to sooth her or burp her but overall she is a champ when it comes to sleeping through the night. The other two sometimes still need to be fed in the middle of the night. Mallory has done most things about 3-4 weeks before the other girls so I'm hoping that they will ALL sleep through the night consistently soon.

Our eating schedule? The girls eat at 8 AM, 12 PM, 4 PM, and 7:30 PM. Sam still eats only about 5-6 oz while the other two eat between 6-8 oz. We have only eaten rice cereal from a spoon about 4 times but they should be able to start solids after we see the doctor next week. It will be tough to figure out when to fit that in.
Our favorite foods? Breast milk.
Our likes? Playing with toys, singing, going upside down, reading, standing with assistance, practicing sitting, playing outside, watching cartoons, going for walks, Jumperoo, Ryley and blowing raspberries.
S: Singing "Eww, Eee, Eww, Ahh, Ahh, Ting, Tang, Walla, Walla, Bing, Bang..." She smiles every time. She is ticklish around her tummy and rib cage and sometimes even giggles when you are changing her clothes. She really likes the jumperoo, playing with her Daddy, and her pacifier.
T: Touching everything and then sticking it in her mouth. She likes to grab skin like your forearm, nose, or neck and squeeze really hard (not so fun for Mommy and Daddy). She likes her pacifier, watching the trees on walks, and scooting around.
M: She enjoys looking and touching Ryley, talking to her Minnie Mouse doll, rolling and scooting, and doing the 'Mallory Mile' (when you have to walk her around to keep her happy... normally before meal time)

Our dislikes? Sleeping the FULL nap time, Medicine, and being hungry.
Our favorite games/toys? We are all enjoying playing Peekaboo and being lifted up in the air. S: She really likes the jumperoo and touching new objects. T: She really likes this soft toy that laughs and loves to put toys in her mouth. M: She likes any toys that make sound or music.
Our milestones? Everyone is sitting with little assistance but they don't quite have it down on their own yet. S: Grabbing toys and bringing them to her mouth, spiitting, and she is rolling both ways. T: Coming up on all fours, spitting and scooting backwards. M: Rolling and scooting all over the place, and she will sit for about 30 seconds before tumbling over.
Things we do to make Mom and Dad smile? Interacting with each or with Ryley, giggling, observing or doing new things, staying happy when we are out and about, and sleeping through the night.
