I have PICTURES! Does that help make up for being so behind with the update?! Hope so. I have zero energy at the moment, so I will upload the new awesome pictures and probably not say too much tonight. After an unscheduled visit to the doctor's (everything is fine!) I'm pooped and I'm working really hard on staying off my feet and laying down to try to relieve some of the pressure and swelling (not pre-eclampsia swelling like last time, just three babies bearing down on me causing swelling swelling). Anyway...here are some great pictures from the ultrasound on Monday. All babies are doing great. The tech was great, she took fun pictures first then did her measurements, which I really liked. Joseph got to go, along with my mom, so it was a great visit. 
Here's Abby Love! She was facing us, so this was the best picture we have of her. She's looking at all of you saying "hello all 5 blog readers!" Abby weighed in at 10 oz. this week and was measuring 19 weeks 4 days. A little bit behind, but she continues to grow and we are saying some extra prayers that she'll put her Mommy at ease and catch up next visit!
Here's Claire Elizabeth! She finally flipped to head down (maybe that's the added pressure, thanks girlie!) and is right in the middle of all the action. Claire weighed in at 13 oz. this week and is measuring right on track, 20 weeks 1 day (I think...it's a lot of numbers to remember!). Anyway...Claire has always been the most photogenic of the group...why you ask?! Here's one more of her...
YES she's sucking her thumb and I'm completely in love with this picture!
And, last but not least, here's baby boy...
Big ol' Brayden Jae! Yes, I said big. He weighed in at 15 oz. (that's almost a pound people!) and was measuring ahead at 20 weeks 5 days. He's going to show those girls who is boss that's for sure!
So, as you can see, we had a great appointment with great pictures. Makes me very happy to have great pictures to share with y'all. The difference between Abby and Brayden is 25%, which is higher then they like, but he's measuring ahead, her behind, and it's not helping the situation. Dr. S. assures me they are all doing great and we can't expect them to be equal. I do ask for prayers for me to stay calm and enjoy this pregnancy (and maybe throw one in there for Abby to catch up and make me feel better too). So, that's it for now. Saturday marks week 21...bring it on! As always, thank you for checking in on us and for all the love, support and prayers, you will never know how much it means to us! And as always, please Remember Jackson! Now, I'm off to put my feet up and eat ice, yes, I'm in love with ice, but not fresh ice, ice that has been out for a little while and breaks really easy...yes, I love it. Just one more thing for poor Joseph to try to keep up with!

Great update from a great appointment! Glad they are all doing so well and, yes, am so loving the thumb sucker! You just take it easy, let Joseph keep the ice flowing, and know that we will all be praying for your entire clan...especially for Abby to show the other two up with significant weight gain by next appointment!
