Shelly - You look fantastic! I can't even imagine how you've been coping with three good sized little ones in there. But you make it look easy. (ok, so maybe not easy, but not torturous!).

The other Shellie - I love the picture with your pup! That's a great one.

Everyone's looking great. Keep the pictures coming!

Wow Shelly!! 30 weeks....YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!! Keep taking the pictures. When the babies get older, you will be happy that you did!!

Joline, you look too cute!!! And I love the boys names too. Did you have dinner or lunch at PF Chang's??? The place in the back ground looked familiar.

Shelly, Shellie, Melanee - you ladies are so cute!!!

Shelly, WOW, 30 weeks!!!!!!!!!! Are you on any kind of bedrest? Have they given you a sense of when the babies are likely to come? I think I read somewhere that triplet pregnancies usually last about 33 weeks which means you are ALMOST there! (Of course, we're praying for those little ones to stay put as long as possible ...)

All of you look great!

Shelly, I want to know where you shop! You always look so cute and I have such a hard time finding clothes, it feels like my belly is growing so fast (along with my butt and hips). Things that fit last week, don't fit this week. So frustrating!!

Again, you are all beautiful. One day I'm actually going to start taking pictures!
