Woo hoo! 4 months old!
Spell watch update... Sammy made it to day 4 this weekend, so close! He is now on day 1. Elsie is on day 4, she could be home on Thursday! Danny is on a perpetual day 0. He is having lots of spells when he spits up, he has trouble clearing his airway and chokes. We are trying new things with his feeds to try to prevent this, but it really is maturity and learning to cough to clear out his airway.
Not much else to report, just working on breaking the kids out of the NICU. Here are some pics...

Our feeding process is nurse a baby, then top them off with a bottle of high calorie supplement. In this pic, I had nursed Sammy and Danny at once, topped off Sammy with a bottle, then put him on my shoulder to rest while I topped off Danny. Sammy slept for 10 min, then woke up and squirmed his way down to try to feed again. When he got there, he realized my shirt was in the way and is trying to pull down my shirt. Babies are smart little creatures.
Lisa,

Hi Lisa!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your beautiful babies! Mrs. Vargo shared your blog with me; I've loved following their little journey so far! Mrs. Vargo told me that you asked how Bruce was. :) He is doing well but is waaaaaaay overdue for a bath and trim! Can't wait to read your next update.
