Update on the babes

The NICU staff says the babies are doing well. It's been tough being stuck in the hospital with nothing to do but heal. Every time I hear the neighbors baby crying I wish it were mine. When I see the NICU staff changing my babies diapers I wish it were me. Yeah, so maybe I'm crazy, maybe it's the hormones, but it will be so nice when we actually get to have them to ourselves.

Haley continues to improve. She's not on any breathing treatments and is doing well digesting her food. They've been continually increasing her feedings and she even nursed today. I didn't really expect much, but she ate like a champ. I have high hopes for her to come home within a week or two.

Spencer is improving too, but he still has a bit of ground to cover. As of this morning his chest X-ray says his lungs are clear which is probably why his breathing is starting to improve. It's not consistently better, but it's a start. They just started giving him milk, but he's not really digesting it yet. They said he's diverting all his effort to breathing right now and hopefully the eating thing will pick up in a couple of days.

Now the fun part...pitures
