All Good News this Week!

Well, it has been a good week so far.  All babies are doing well and progressing good at this time.  Braden and Kate both reached the 4lbs milestone this week and have been moved to open cribs.  They have done well with this transition and have kept their body temps up as hoped.  They have also gotten the feeding tube taken out and are taking bottles at all feeding times!  It is so nice to see them in real baby clothes looking like real babies.  Brooks is also doing much better.  Since his set back last week, MD's allowed him to gradually resume eating.  He is currently receiving max amount he can for his weight with increased calories to aid in his wt gain.  Following his set back, he had dropped down to 2lbs 2oz, but is now up to almost 2lbs 5oz.  The small little guy is still the fiestiest of the three and such a fighter!  I also received more good news today that if Kate and Braden continue to keep their temps up and take bottles well, they will be coming home on Sunday or Monday!  I was so excited to hear this news and now am kind of freaking about all that needs to be done before their arrival--you would think that having babies in NICU for 3 weeks would give me ample time to get everything ready, but with running back and forth to see them, the day is over before I know it.  Again, I can not say enough how truly blessed we have been!
