Not a whole lot of changes again. Sydney gained again and is now 1890 grams or 4 lbs 3 oz. She gained 2 oz last night. Ethan gained a whopping 1020 grams--but that includes his new cast. So, we couldn't get too excited there. Gaining that amount of weight is over 2 lbs! Way to go Ethan! There were no changes in their feedings, that comes tomorrow. They'll also have blood drawn tomorrow to see how their bone-building is going. They may supplement their diet with vitamin D if their levels don't improve from the last draw.
The exciting news is that we can now hold them as much as we want--as long as they are doing well. We are thrilled! We felt spoiled to not have anyone say to us, "it's been 30 minutes, time to put them in their bed." For a moment, we felt a little more like their parents. The nurses tonight made us laugh. We had a great time talking with them. (Thanks Becky.)
Here's a cute video of Doug holding Sydney...
They are 3 weeks old in just a few hours...can't believe it. Ethan makes lots of noises while he sleeps. It's really sweet and we finally caught it on video.
