December 1st Update

Well, today is Ali's homecoming day!

She will get to see her house and all of the changes that have happened while she has been on bed rest. When she went on bed rest it was 90 degrees outside and as she is heading home we are getting 10" of snow. Oh how time "flies!"

The girls are doing well, we were able to hold all of them yesterday for an hour or so each. The girls just steal your heart when they hold on tight--pretty strong for 3 lbs.

Each girl has a heart murmur that they have given them meds to help close. They will not be able to begin feedings until Wednesday now since the drugs are hard on their stomachs. So that means that they will be in the NICU until at least Wednesday. They need to start taking feedings before they will move them to the Special Care Nursery.

Please pray that the meds work and the murmur's close and stay closed and that they take to their feedings quickly so we can move them out of the NICU.

We will continue to update as things progress.

Thank you for all of the prayers, calls, flowers (the nurses are amazed with the flowers), visits, etc. They mean the world to us.

Thanks again.

Peter, Ali and M. L. B.
