Big Moves....

Hi all. We have had a busy last few days with the little ones especially today. All three of them were transferred to the hospital closer to home. It's good news as it means they are healthy enough to not need critical care and the hospital is much closer to home. It will be much easier to visit them as the drive will only take us about 10 minutes verse the 45 minutes we have been doing. We were really sad to leave the nurses that had taken care of them since birth. They provided them with exceptional care and treated them as if they were their own children. We will always have a special place in our hearts for them. Before we left last night the nurses made it possible for us to take our very first family photo which we didn't think would happen until all of them were home.



All of the babies are doing really well. Emery was moved into an open crib on Thursday and has been doing really well with holding her temperature. Grayson should be moved into an open crib tomorrow. Emery and Grayson have both started taking more of their feeds by bottle which they have both been doing really well with it. Nathan's feeds have consistently increased and we have been working with him with a pacifier getting him ready to start bottle feeding again. We are sure it will be happening very soon. Once he starts taking his feeds by bottle I am sure it will not take him long to catch up with his brother and sister. Nathan got his PICC line removed last night which means he can now wear clothes from home as well. All three of them are putting on weight daily and are now approx 4lbs 3oz (Emery), 3lbs 10oz (Grayson) and 3lbs 4oz (Nathan).

Here are some pics of Emery from a few days ago: The first one is of her in her new crib. The second pic is not very clear but it is too cute not to share.





Here are a few pictures of Grayson:





Here are a few pictures of Nathan (prior to his PICC line being removed):





Until next time.....
