Our babes are coming home soon!!!

Last night at the NICU one neonatologist casually mentioned the babes going home soon - today i spoke with the neo who is working this weekend and he expects them to be home Tuesday or Wednesday!!!!!

OH MY GOSH!!! My babes... coming HOME!!!!

Basically he just wants to see them continue taking their bottles well, and see that dh & i are comfortable giving them their bottles. Their weight gain continues to be excellent, they are maintaining their temperature in an open crib well, and are on all bottles.

I just cant believe it Last night after the doc mentioned it i started to cry thinking that i could see my babies all the time, i dont have to go to the hospital to see them.

Im so excited and so terrified all at the same time. Knowing my family will be together and complete is just incredible But then i worry about no heart monitors, no dr around the corner, no nurse watching them 24/7 to make sure all is well.

But wow. My babies!!! They will be 4 weeks old on Wednesday, gestationally they would be 34 weeks, 2 days on Wednesday. and Coming HOME!!!

Last nights weights...

Evie : 4 lbs 3/4 oz
Jackson : 4 lbs 2 oz

and they are both in the open crib :) And of course, a few pics...

"Hey, i remember you!"
