Ask and you shall receive

Well, last update we were talking about playing the waiting game to see when the boys were going to get to come home.  Over the course of the last week or so, Jameson and Henry have picked up their feeding.  Dr. Wertz, the neonatologist on this past week, adjusted their feeding intervals from 3 hours to 4 hours to get their hunger urges going.  It did the trick as the boys were much more voracious in their eating.  This morning, the feedings tubes were removed from both of the boys and they taking all feedings by mouth. (Pictures below) So, fingers crossed, the boys are on their countdown to departure.  We do our overnight stay in the NICU “suite” tomorrow night where we get to experience our first of many nights of limited/no sleep.  Then, if all goes well, the boys should be coming home on Wednesday, just in time for their first thanksgiving.
