Oliver and Sullivan are 2 weeks old today.
It is strange to think that these two guys...
were squished in here...
just 2 weeks ago!
This is a lovely picture of me right before I went to the hospital.
I was 34 weeks and 4 days.
The boys are both still in the NICU, but are doing really well. Right now we're pretty much playing the waiting game... both boys need to take all of their feedings by mouth before they can come home. They have to eat a certain amount every 3 hours and if they don't get it through nursing and the bottle then they have to be gavaged (fancy word for being fed through that not so cute yellow tube in their noses) They are both hit and miss and get worn out during feedings. They are slowly building up their stamina and hopefully the end of NICU is near.... we need those feeding tubes gone ASAP so we can get them home!

Congratulations! What adorable boys and names! Hope they can come home soon!
Hang in there. The boys are darling. You looked AMAZING, esp. for having 2 babies in there. I bet you feel better with them out. Good luck on the NICU waiting game. We've watched others go through it (sister in law and Misty Hope) and know it can be frustrating.
