Today's news

Cynthia got to hold Jessica for the first time today. She held her for about an hour. Jessica made her first poop. That's good because it means that her tummy is working. YAY!!! During the afternoon assessment, I got to change her diaper. I didn't know they made things so tiny, and then the nurse reminded me that the top flap needs to be folded over, because they are still too big for the babies.

That should change soon.

Evelyn is still doing well, although her tummy is not working quite as well as her sister's. I was supposed to get a chance to hold her this afternoon, but we decided to wait until tomorrow to see if the tummy processes improved any. The tests that were ran didn't show any problems, so the docs think that her tummy is just a bit slow. That should improve over the next couple of days.

  2. Their "cousin" Rebecca is so happy to have littles that have a June birthday - she thinks that's cool. I think it's pretty cool that 22 can equal 4 (Cynthia will understand)!! And I love the June, July, August split you guys have going!! Glad to hear they are taking milk. All the folks I know who have been through it are super impressed by how amazing they are!
