Looks like you have a mumma plant. She will continue to put out new growth. You can try to separate them and plant in their own pots and you’ll have lots of individual plants.  
You can see how my mumma leans to one side, but she’s being pushed over by her babies.  
Hope this helps 🤞🏼

Plus yours are babies themselves. They won’t grow up until their roots have established a bit.
