The boys first dinner out!



September 25, 2007 - The boys turned 1 month old today, and they are doing well. Adam is finally getting some meat on his cheeks. They spent the day celebrating, imbibing on milk, sleeping in, and making noise. Overall they have been pleased with their first month, and have decided to continue this run and look forward to their second month and what it may bring.

Three Weeks Old

Saturday, September 15th - The boys are now three weeks old, and are getting used to life at home. Dylan stated "The beds are nicer here than the hospital, but overall the care has been not as solid" and Adam added "Nothing against this 'home life' but we seemed to have a lot more of a full service package at the hospital".

Regardless, things are going well. They have both had baths at home, and went on their first stroller ride around the neighborhood today and met a lot of their neighbors. Last night we had 4 hours between feedings, which is a record so far.
They have another doctor visit this coming week, but other than that the schedule looks like eat, sleep, repeat - in no particular order.

Homecoming

Monday, September 10th - The boys took care of business over the weekend and arrived home today! They spent 16 long and trying days in the hospital, and we are all now very excited to be home. We recognize it was hard to have visitors in the hospital, and appreciated everyones calls of concerns, and generous offers of assistance. Once things get settled at home Dylan and Adam have stated they would like to see some of the folks we have been telling them about.

Thanks,

AJ, lil' D, Jill and Joe

One Week Old

September 1, 2007 - The boys are one week old today. They are no longer on monitors and are making progress each day. We hope to have them home soon but at this point do not have a specific time frame. Thanks for all your thoughts and concerns regarding the babies. Many of you have expressed interest in visiting them in the hospital. Due to the complexity of being in the special care nursery, we are going to hold off on visitors until they are able to come home. The pictures above are of us holding them during one of their feedings.
