New Years and our move...

Well, a lot of progress has been made since I last wrote!! The boys have had their feeding tubes removed and are taking all their feeds by bottle or nursing. I got to try to breast feed them last Saturday (Dec. 29th). The lactation consultant warned me that they probably wouldn't do much, but to my surprise they picked right up on it and did great!! They were allowed to breast feed once per day until today and now they can twice per day as long as they don't lose weight. Speaking of weight...Mitchell now weighs 4 lbs. 4 oz. and Parker weighs 3 lbs. 10 oz. They are just getting HUGE!! We can't believe how quickly their progress has been lately!! Also, they finally got big enough for them to start wearing clothes last Friday (Dec. 28th). I have had sooo much fun with that!! I went shopping to get them a bunch of preemie clothes as we didn't have any, and of coarse-even preemie clothes are HUGE on them!! The nurses are getting a lot more relaxed about letting us hold them, which has been great!! Mitchell hasn't had an apnea spell in 4 days and Parker hasn't had one in 3 days. We are hopeful that they are outgrowing those spells as they are VERY scary!! So, we feel like they are definitely on the road to coming home!!

Also, my friend from the 6th floor, Rebecca, finally had her baby (Addison) on Sunday morning!! She is doing great and has already moved to the step down unit. They are thinking that she will be released in a week~those lucky ducks!! She weighed 5 lbs. 12 oz. And, as it turns out she is Mitchell and Parker's new neighbor!! They are thrilled to have her there and we are too!!

Well, we moved into our new house in the Trent Park part of Fieldstone Farms on Friday. Kyle's parents came in town on Friday to help us get everything organized and boy did they ever help!! I was worried about whether I needed to be here unpacking or be at the hospital with the boys. Kyle convinced me that I should go to the hospital, and when I got home they had totally gotten everything done!! What a pleasant surprise and a relief that it was done and I didn't have to worry with it!! They are truly the best and I am lucky to have such wonderful in-laws!!

So, as a whole everything is going great right now and we are just looking forward to bringing these babies home!! Please continue to pray for them to get FAT!!
