Dinner time!


Maddy had her first official bottle tonight. She looked a little confused at first but with in a few seconds jumped right in and finished it off. Hopefully Zoe will be doing the same in a few more days.

Zoe and Maddy also had their first big eye exam this morning and they both passed it with flying colors.

Nap Time

We snapped this shot right as we were leaving this evening. It appears Zoe had a big day and was settling in for the night.

IV free

This morning Miss Zoe's IV was removed, and she is now on breast milk only. We're hoping next week to start breast feeding . . . big steps :) Maddy made it one day oxygen free, she had to go back on at very low setting over the weekend. Nothing to worry about, they assure us it's normal for their early age. They wanted to see if she could handle no assistance last week, but she got a little tired on her own.

Here she is . . .


Here is our little Maddy, officially free of assisted air as of this morning at 8:30am. They will keep a super close eye on her for the next 48 hours to see if she can tolerate room air on her own. It's 50/50 a lot of kids go back on some oxygen for a little bit after being taken off.

Sweet dreams


Little Miss Zoe catching some zzzzz's during the day yesterday. Her hair is really coming in reddish - which side of the family that's from we're not sure :)

A to F


Big day for the Ladies, they moved from nursery A to F. Nursery F is for more stable infants, and it is right next door to the carpeted nursery "G" - you get to go home when you hit the carpet . . . just a few more weeks :)

Snug as bug


The girls really love the Kangaroo Care. This is Maddy, snuggled up and asleep within a minute of being placed on Jim's chest.
