An ordinary family in the northern Chinese city of Tianjin are preparing for the upcoming one-month celebration of their triplets birth on November 13.

The triplets are not actually three separate babies, as two of them are joined at their waist, according to Tianjin Daily. The conjoined twins, also known as Siamese twins, are brothers, while the other of the triplets is a girl. The unique three are perfectly healthy, only a little underweight for their age.

The family plan to partake of noodles on the celebration day, a Chinese traditional food usually eaten on birthdays.

The conjoined twins will undergo separation surgery when they grow older.
