Today our tiny miracles turned six weeks old! Wow! It is hard to believe they are six weeks old already yet at the same time I cannot really remember what a day would be like without them.
Adam was a bit grumpy today. He received the last of his steroid treatments this morning. Today he was not even happy on his belly, his favorite position. Adam's way of showing displeasure is to wiggle around, destat, and set alarms off. He has apparently been comparing notes with Kylee and has figured out how to get his bubbler out of his nostrils. This does not help the alarm sounding situation! Adam weighed 2 pounds, 12 ounces tonight.
Kylee is doing beautifully. She laid on Mommy today for about an hour without her bubbler and did great. We overheard the nurses at shift change talking about Adam and Kylee as the night nurse was updated about their care. The day nurse referred to Kylee as their "super star."
Today is a big milestone for our tiny miracles. They have made it to six weeks and are both strong and growing every day. Aside from Adam's previous breathing complications and infection, they have both been very, very blessed.
Tonight Eric's Chief and his wife came to visit the twins. As soon as Chief walked up to Adam's incubator Adam opened his eyes and started watching Chief. He watched the two of them for most of their visit. Chief was amazed at how big they have gotten and how well they are doing.
Thank you for all the prayers, love, kindness and support. We have all made it through the last six weeks because of your generosity of spirit. Aside from Adam's grumpiness, today was a very good day.
