The babies are coming along. Twice today I dropped off milk and visited them. They're a lot more active now that they are out of their incubators. I held them for over an hour this morning, while they worked on the hearing test. (Which apparently involves some sort of hand held scanner and little sensors, but requires the babies to be asleep.) To get them sleepy for the test, I fed one while the nurse fed the other. They're up to 40-45 cc per feeding now, and are regaining weight. They are to come home Monday, which will let Emily's parents arrive and get partially settled.
The pictures above are phone pictures, but I will have better ones soon. Emily and I are both pretty tired, but hopefully will bounce back soon. I had a few hours to work this morning and time for a nap this afternoon, and together this, plus visiting the babies, seems to have improved my outlook dramatically. We still have a lot to figure out--car seats and sleeping arrangements, etc., but things have really come along. Today Sam was able to play with the neighbors. Folk on campus dropped off meals twice. We will get there. It helps to see their sleepy little heads and to enjoy a day with the big brother. All things in time...
