Update




Christian got a good report last night. The brain scan showed minimal brain bleeding on both boys (totally normal for preemies) so they are able to do the blood thinner with relatively low risk. They started him on it last night and they will re-sonogram him in a week to see how it is going. They said to expect the clot to take a couple of months to go away since he is on such a low dose of blood thinner. Brock is doing well (as always) and they have been bumping up his feeding size over the last couple of days. He is eating like a big man now!

Both boys are on the step down for breathing with a new form of CPAP tubes. They are exactly one week old today!! We couldn't be more thrilled!!! I am heading to the NICU this morning with my mom and then Brandon and I will go tonight and try to hold them again. We just can't get enough of our little men :)

I am attaching some pics with Brandon's mom and the boys from last week. He just got these emailed to me. How lucky all the boys are to have meet all their grandparents in the first week of life!
