WELCOME HOME BOYS!!

check out our new "crib"
Hey I remember you!
Tiny!!!!!!!!!

WELCOME HOME BOYS
London and Judson are both Home now.
London came home on Thursday the 8th
Judson came home on Saturday the 10th.  
They are both doing great with their feedings, they each take 60 ml every 4 hours, which is about two ounces every 4 hours.  To give you an idea of their intake, it equals the same amount of liquid that is in a standard coke can.

FEEDING SCHEDULE
2am
6am
10am
2pm
6pm
10pm 

BABY NAPS
In-between  feedings they sleep anywhere from 2-3 hours.  Currently they sleep together in a pack-n-play crib in our room.  They seem to be doing great so I'm sure they will advance to a crib in their room in a couple of months.

VISITORS
Today we had an action packed day of visitors:  Grandparents, Great Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and even a soon to be cousin, Kenleigh.

FAMILY TIME
Sunday and Monday Holly and I have decided to take it easy and get use to the boys being home and get them on a schedule at the house.   Probably by the middle of next week we will start letting extended family come and visit.   Our doctors have advised us against opening the flood gates for a while since it is cold and flu season and premature babies take a little while to develop an immune system.


THANKS
All that Holly and I can say is thanks to God, our family, our church family, friends, prayer warriors, Dr. Rehburg the staff at Sylacauga OBGYN, the staff at Coosa Valley Medical Center, all of the staff at St. Vincents Medical Center and a special thanks to Angela, Dawn, Jamie, Lindsey, Mary and Peyton even-though you cheated on us with babies in other pods.  All of the nurses in the NICU are great but you ladies have been elected by God to that position for the love that you show people in need. 
thanks again,
  Eric, Holly, London and Judson
