A Much Needed Good Day


Today was a good day in the NICU! Tony had the day off, so we were able to spend some time together as a family of 4; it’s so neat to be able to hold the kids at the same time (even if the kids can’t see each other) and talk and feel like a little family.

While Tony was holding Harper today, they both felt more comfortable than earlier this week. Harper has been doing better on the high flow cannula, and Tony found a position that worked well for both of them. Check out pictures of this beautiful little girl with her very sweet little cheeks- she loves to cuddle with her dad.

Jack and I spent some time together today and I got to cuddle with him. He was hungry when we walked in, so I started nursing him- 20 minutes later he was just finishing up with me, and starting with his Gavage feeding. He had never nursed that long before and I even got him to burp when he was finished. The nurse also informed us that Jack took 21 ml of his bottle last night (a record for that little man). I’m not sure when it happened, but our little guy is getting so big. Here’s a picture of him getting all bundled up and ready to eat.


What a good day with our little ones- God is good!
