Expecting Triplets!

October 28th, or so the special due-date calendar thing says....the Rudd circus will be arriving. We'll no longer be Rudd party-of-two....



we'll be Rudd party-of-five! That's right folks, three babies at once! Take a moment to let that sink in.....took me about eight weeks. :) Now of course I know what everyone's first question is.



CAN YOU FIT THREE CAR SEATS IN YOUR CAR?? :) Good question. Well, we have news. It can be done!



Tight fit for now. But at least there is no van in our near future. Back to the Rudd circus comment.




No more going anywhere without being a spectacle, as seen above.

Another feat of engineering that Clark accomplished was fitting both those strollers into the trunk. With a little wiggle here and removal of wheels there, it can also be done! We are feeling better by the minute.

I am almost 14 weeks but about one month farther along in size.



I meet with the perinatologist (high-risk OB) in one week. That should be interesting because they have much higher-tech equipment. Hopefully I'll have some sonogram pictures to post.

  1. wow--congratulations! When dad told me the news, I could hardly believe it. I think your dad told him on April 1st so he thought it was a joke! We're close to Dallas so let us know when you need anything. Seriously.

  5. I thought you were totally joking when you announced it on your family blog! Congratulations!
    We were in a BYU married ward together a while ago and I have loved following you guys on your blog. It's going to be even more exciting now!
    I can't even imagine how exhausted you must be already, but it must be nice to be through the first trimester (hopefully)
    Good luck!
