Well it's been an eventful last couple days. On Sunday morning Nathan was moved into a crib with Nicholas and now the boys are together again. My mom was down for the week, and she was a huge help shuttling Jaime back and forth to the hospital and watching Drew while we were at the hospital together. Nathan has started to get the hang of eating out of a bottle, but his major successes have come when the nurses in the NICU feed him. He continues to get too comfortable and sleepy with Jaime and I to complete a full feeding. The big news of the day was that Nathan had his feeding tube removed today, and the doctors suggested to Jaime that if he continues to improve his feedings he will be allowed to go home with Nicholas on Friday! It really is amazing how far the boys have come in less than 3 weeks.On another note we actually got the boys Social Security cards today so they are now official U.S. citizens, and we can claim them as deductions on our 2009 taxes. Nice little bonus for the parents!
Nicholas is now 4 lbs. 6-2/3 oz.
Nathan is now 4 lbs. 0-1/3 oz.A whole slew of pictures can be seen by checking out this slideshow!
