Wow... lots of fun!

So I am pretty excited about how my boys are doing! Both of them have taken at least one full bottle, and it is only their second day at attempting this new feat! They also have been pretty good at not having as many spells and are getting bigger and bigger... Max is just a little over 5 lbs!!! And Mr. Luke will not be completely out done, he is coming steady at 3 lbs 9.5 oz! I am just so happy that Luke is eating well too. Our biggest hurdle to go home at this point is to make sure they can take all of their feedings by breast or bottle. The nursing is going fairly well too, it is just harder to know if they are getting enough with that now!

So... I have some pictures to share! I am updating right now from a recliner in the NICU with Max in his isolette on my left and Luke on my right. Just about as good as it could get right now. Only thing better would be having my hubby here! :)

My favorite... wheeeee...... :)

Matching outfits!

Really, boys, this is fun! We are enjoying this!

MAX: nice Lukey, nice boy.


Luke lookin' for dinner! ha!

Max was sucking on Luke's head. Hard!

MAX: Mmmm, your head tastes good. Johnson & Johnson?
LUKE: Mmmmm, yup, on your hands too??



Ok, time to eat... or else Max will devour Luke before we know it!

  3. It is so amazing seeing everyone hold those precious little boys and how blessed they already are for such a great family!! Max sure makes Luke look little when they are put right next to each other like that. So excited for you guys and all the good news lately! God is so good!!! Love to you all!
