Happy 1 month birthday!!! 1-22

By Jonathan Chu from www.jonathan-chu.blogspot.com

It's truly hard to believe that my girls are a month old.  They officially hit 33weeks on Tues. and they are getting bigger every day.  It feels like we've had them for much longer than that already but, at the same time, it has felt so short!!

We've had a really calm day in the world of the girls.  This afternoon we had a wonderful baby shower for the girls at our friend's house and got to spend some time connecting with our non-medical friends.  We're so grateful for all of their kindness.

Lydia
  • Trucking along fine and dandy.  She fed well today and had some nice poopy diapers!  
  • We're continuing to watch for any signs of NEC but so far there haven't been any.
  • Bethany got to kangaroo today! But not just Bethany, I got to have my first kangaroo session with her!  It was absolutely the greatest feeling I've ever had.  Holding my child on my chest for the first time ever.  Definitely a moment I'll never forget.  Can't wait to hold her again!
Penelope
  • Hasn't had a lot happen today in the world of the oscillator.  She's still floating up and down on her O2 levels but hopefully working her way down.  
  • She responded a bit this morning to us, talking to her, reading her a story and praying with her.
  • Her antibiotic has been changed to a more specific one that is processed through the liver to help give her kidney's a break
  • We're waiting for the blood culture from her PICC line to grow or not so that we can tell if that is the source of the infection.  If it is, then the PICC will be removed.
We're going to go to church tomorrow which is always good for our weary souls.  I'll make sure to have a nice big photo bomb tomorrow!
