NICU - Day 16 (Part 2)


 Two big boys in a crib!

Charlie and Alex are both doing well! We went back up to visit them this evening - both ate well and are maintaining their temperature like they are supposed to. One of the nurses even stopped us this evening and wanted to know if we would be able to move to the transition room even as early as tomorrow. Of course!!! Hopefully that means that they boys will be home by the end of the week! This is one excited Mommy!

Having the boys home will also hopefully help Lucy - she has had a really difficult few days and has been pretty clingy. I know all of this is difficult for her to understand and we have thrown a lot of change into her little life in the past two weeks. Once the boys come home, life will change again, but at least this will be a permanent change and she can begin to adjust to a new normal. Life with babies in the NICU hasn't been easy on Michael and I as parents, but it as has been difficult for my sweet little three year old as well. :(

And finally, here's a picture of Daddy holding both of his boys! :) It was hard to get Alex over with them due to the wires, but we did. Now we're just counting down the days until we are completely wire free. .. .it's getting closer very day!
