Making Progress during the GP's visit



Grandma and Grandpa timed their visit from SC just right!  Progress continues during Colton and Sulley's stay in the NICU.  Feedings are continuing to increase and the little ones are handling the extra food well.  The nurses are giving the milk an extra boost by adding a powdered supplement so hopefully pretty soon, we'll start to see 'em fattening up! We want fat rolls and chubby legs!!!  

The double pounders are officially off of their IVs and the Billi Blankets have been removed for the time being.  Much to my dismay, both Colton and Sulley had to leave their phat "Giraffe" isolettes (the Lexus of the isolettes) and have been put into much simpler, less fancy isolette (probably the Toyota Camry) which isn't nearly as cute and is more difficult to maneuver around when trying to change diapers, etc.  

The GP's arrived Thursday and immediately began laughing hysterically at the amount of hair on both kids.  We've been having fun visiting with them and introducing them to their first grandkids.  Dad seems to think that Colton's grip mimics that of football player and seems to think that we may have a wide receiver on our hands.   As for Sulley, the verdict is still out.

You guys are too funny. But it is hard to go from a Lexus to a Toyota I agree. oh well, it's better to have driven a Lexus once, than none at all.

They are little miracles! And so wonderful they don't need the fancy warmers anymore! Glad y'all are having fun!
