Big Boy Bed


We are continuing to enjoy the boys and learn more about each of them everyday!!!
Both boys continue to do well.
Nathan is now 4 pounds 2 ounces and has weaned out of his isollete and into a "big boy" bed!!!  Benjamin is also doing well, he weighs 3 pounds 4 1/2 ounces and he has weaned in his isollete temperature (they will wait until his weight is closer to 4 pounds to take him out of the isollete).  The boys are now growing and wearing their preemie clothes which they are quickly filling out... they will be BIG boys before we know it!!! :)

Both boys are working on breastfeeding and will both get their 1st bottles tonight.
Before they go home there are a few things that need to happen
1. wean to "big boy" beds (maintain body temp)
2. Continue gaining weight
3. Eating all food from bottle or breast

4. pass car seat evaluation
I'm still hoping that both boys will be home for Valentine' s Day!!!
We are allowed two visitors a day for 10 minutes per visit... if you are interested in coming to meet the boys send me an email with what days would work for you and I will let you know if we can make it work.  Once the boys come home, we are looking forward to them meeting all the people who helped Brent and I while I was on bedrest and prayed for the babes to be healthy and strong!
Love,
Emily and the Boys!
