Midweek check in

Last night we were able to help give Caroline a bath. She enjoyed some parts and hated others. She was ready to fall asleep before even getting back into her isolette. We wore her out! Her nurse, Debbie, did a great job giving us pointers and helping us along the way. Other big news, Caroline lost her belly button yesterday, and tonight she graduated to the 7th floor Special Care Nursery.  We are very proud of her!

Dad and Caroline, how cute is that?!?



Claire is still on the bubble CPAP, but yesterday the nurse gave her a lower profile cannula. It's great to be able to see her sweet little face!
Sweet little Claire
 Unfortunately it didn't last for long.  She was back to the full bubble CPAP and hat today. 

Both girls had their PICC lines removed yesterday and they are now off of all IVs. Their feedings also increased to 16cc last night and then 18 cc tonight!

  2. So happy to hear the girls keep doing so much better each day. the pictures of Caroline with Mom and Dad are just precious, especially with her facial expressions in reaction to each parent. Hoping you will have the same kind of pictures with Claire very soon. Much love to all four of you. <3
