Twins 3/12/09

Keaton and Kali both have had a good day. Kali got put back under the blue lights to get a sun tan. They increased her feeds from 3cc to 5cc. She is doing really good on her feeds. Keaton got extibated today - removed from the breathing machine - and on a CPAP. He has stopped breathing a couple of times today or let his heart rate drop once he was on his CPAP but that is pretty normal for small babies like him. They are going to monitor him throughout the night and then I guess we will go from there. Kali weighed 2lbs 4oz. and Keaton weighed 2lbs 6oz. They are now 10 days old and should be getting off of their humidity tomorrow.

Chance, Kyra, and Kenna are all doing good. Kenna doesn't really know what is going on right now but she senses something. She will talk about her brother and sissy but doesn't understand about them. Chance is hanging in there working everyday to save his time for when the babies need him and/or get to come home. It is really hard for him not to be there with them all day but he is doing a great job. Kyra is doing good. She goes back to the doctor next Tuesday and hopefully will get realeased to drive again from the c-seciton. It is really hard having to rely on someone everyday to get you from point A to point B, especially when it is your child you are trying to get to. Other than that, we are all doing great and can't wait for the babies to be able to come home. I know it will be a while, but we are excited.
