Finally introducing. . .

Alex Kent

Bennett Clark

Ruby Dawn
(we'll get a better close up of her soon.)

With a lot of prodding from nurses (and threats of silly nicknames), the registrar demanding the birth certificates, and me just being annoyed that my poor babies don't have names, we finally came up with some that we thought suited their personalities well. They aren't all names we expected, or really planned, but what can you do when your baby just looks like it has a certain name? Not only do we love them more now (if that is even possible), but it is a HUGE load off my mind.

Oh, and I convinced them to let me come home last night instead of sometime today. To shower in my own bathroom, eat out of my own fridge, and sleep in my own bed is a very wonderful thing! Especially after a month of not being able to. From now on my life consists of pumping, visiting the babes, trying to recover (a c-section can really do a number on you!), eating, and sleeping. I miss my babies when I am home, but I know they are being taken care of. I can't wait to see them again!

This is so fun to hear names and see faces. And I love Bennett's fuzzy bedhead. Congrats! They look so amazing and darling.

Corinne said...

WONDERFUL! I am SO GLAD you went with Ruby. I love it - I love all of them. Perfect in every way :)

Courtney said...

I love them already! Molly told me their names last night, and it's great to see some close-ups of the boys to put their names and faces together. Yay for sleeping in your own bed. Call me if you need absolutely anything!

How perfect. Names really do change everything. I am a little ticked that you used my girl name...but considering you carried and gave birth to triplets, I'll let it slide this time.

Simply Beautiful....That's all I've got.

Lili and Jeff said...

Cuuuuuute. I love your babies. I wonder if their hair will stay so dark! That would be cool, since most of the babies in our family come out blondies!

Kristy said...

You're little boys are named after Superman! Kinda fits I think. Love all their names! I can't wait to hear more of them and how all you are doing.

Beautiful pictures! Love it all.

Woods said...

Oh my gosh Em! They are so beautiful!! I am so happy for you and KC. I think the names fit them perfectly. I can't wait to get to know them better. Hope you are feeling good. Take it easy if you can. Congrats!!

Lindsey said...

What a miracle! They are beautiful!

Drew said...

I think Ruby Dawn is one of the most lovely of names ever. It sounds like something from a Victorian novel. I love the other ones too. I wanted Alex, but alas! They look great!

melody said...

I LOVE the names. Good work, it's hard enough to come up with one!

melody said...

Oh, and thanks for posting the close-ups. Those boys really do have a lot of hair! They are precious and darling.

Look at Bennett's hair!! Too cute!

Janine said...

Wonderful names, and I love their fuzzy little heads. Good luck with the recovery, and we can't wait to watch them grow big and strong so they can come home with you soon!

Amber said...

So I have to tell you Logan was having me read your story to him and then when I scrolled down enough for him to see your cute babies he gasped! He was so excited to see them up closer. They are precious. I love the names you picked. Man they are so beautiful....and Bennetts hair is awesome. Oh man this is fun. Perfect, Perfect. Keep getting stronger you have so many fun times ahead....it is awesome. So happy your mom was there.

Joni said...

Thank you so much for not doing rhyming names! I hate that:) Ruby is a gorgeous name. I have considered it myself. All in all, very classy names!

jeri said...

Such lovely names! Congrats to all 5 of you!

Wendy K said...

I wonder whether Alex is boy A and Bennett is boy B.

Jann said...

Congratulations you guys. They are just beautiful babies. I will keep them and you in my prayers, and wish you all the best with your new little ones.

Shannon said...

I like their names very much! I was gonna suggest Kenneth, Clark, and Emily Jr, but I guess these work. :) I really do like the ones you chose, and I agree, sometimes names just "fit!"
