Wonderful Week

Brandon and I have had a wonderful week with the babies. Christian was taken off air for his third try to see if he could go without it. They took out his cannula at 10am on Friday and he was doing pretty well. They put it back in for a couple of hours yesterday and today but he was off it again this afternoon... pretty good progress! He is approved to eat 8 bottles a day now and this was a huge improvement for him. He ate 6 of 6 yesterday (yeah!) and they told us to bring in our car seat on Monday for his car seat test... we are close!!! The nurse thought about another week which fits right in with what the doctor had said also. He was 5 pounds, 4 oz today.

Brock had a great week too. He got some acid reflux on Tuesday and we spent lots of time on the phone with the doctor and at the pharmacy getting him some much needed relief. He is on Axid right now, three times a day and it is really helping! He also got his first diaper rash this week and we made it through that... whew!

    We can't wait to see the boys this coming week! We've got our flu shots, our e-tickets, and a bad case of grandparentitis. I think I can already see their potential to be handsome, athletic, chivalrous, Nobel prize winners, who reflect Christ's love. Modest expectations, I know! I'll try to keep Karen calm! We're praying that we'll get to see Christian released from 'captivity' so we can help to bring him home! Looking forward to being with y'all next weekend!

    Love,
    D & K
