"Transition To Home"

So Michelle and I went in for the discharge class tonight, where they go over home safety, preemie concerns, CPR, etc. and got a pleasant surprise - both boys had "Transition To Home" cards attached to their cribs. Apparently as of 7pm (for Dylan) and midnight (for Shane,) both boys will have completed the necessary 24 hours of mouth feedings and, barring any last minute complications, BOTH boys should be going home together on or about Friday of this week. Good news, indeed.

On the bad news (at least for the boys) front, we signed the consent forms for their circumcisions and they should be all neat and trimmed tonight or tomorrow morning. When the doctor was describing the procedure I nearly vomited, but was able to restrain myself.

So, here comes the REAL work once the boys come home and our apartment census increases from four to six...

I am so happy for you all! I hope this doesn't mean that the blog will end though. I would love to see pictures of the whole family together! Best wishes. Love, Erika
