Last night, Emily weighed 4 lbs 12 oz and Matthew was 3 lbs 7.6 oz. We have started occupational and physical therapy to get stronger and work on developmental markers like tummy time and sucking/swallowing.
I still need to post the pics from baths. They both screamed during the baths and were happy when it was time to put on the hooded towel.
The nurses (who were on their 4th night of working) decided to make a little bow out of yarn for Emily's hair so her first "official" bow is not one of the many that Mommy's has purchased (b/c they are WAY too big!).
Who can say that I don't look like my Daddy? Chin and cheek dimples included.... Matthew is developing a funny little personality. He has been "smiling" and is working on getting out of that isolette and into a big boy crib. The isolette temp is turned down daily and he stays warm on his own (which is huge step in preemie world) and he now gets a pillow since he is too long for just the z-flow bed. The nurse and NP said today that they can barely hear his murmur which means that the PDA is closing. So next step is removing that oxygen.
