Here is another long awaited update on the Silverman triplets, or as we like to call them Keren, Noa, and Shajar. Currently the girls health is satisfactory; in the last three weeks since their arrival they have gained about another thirty percent of their body weight, i.e. around 600 to 700 gr each. Noa has passed the 3 kg mark, and looks terrifyingly like a baby, and not like a little chick. Likewise for Keren and Shajar, although they are appreciably smaller. We are still on that insane three hour feeding schedule, and hopefully we will be able to advance to demand feeding within the next couple of weeks.

All three girls are terribly sweet although at times they can drive a body insane - the most talented in that sport is Shajar who for some unknown reason:

• doesn't go to sleep, or rarely does and
• is very fussy when it comes to feeding; its as though she wants to but she hasn't got the least idea of how to go about it, and she gets totally frustrated and goes crazy while screaming at the top of her teeny, tiny lungs.

These girls, if they don't turn into little ladies, will be some lucky guy's dream come true; they can burp, fart and spit with the best of them, and when they do, they reward you with the nicest smile imaginable. In this respect Noa is a real daddy's girl. While Keren has a lot to learn when it comes to burping, she can carry a beautiful tune with an exceptionally long, resonant, anal gaseous discharge.

Keren and Noa seem to prefer interacting with each other rather than their toys - they lie side by side holding hands or poking each other in the face, mouth and eyes while grunting unintelligible greetings at each other. Shajar, on the other hand, prefers her teddy bear and sort of lies there with her eyes wide open making tiny grunting squeaks every now and then.

As usual they are a great source of happiness in our midst and if you have the time and the inclination why not come over and kill an hour to get to know and feed them.
