Mindy does the double kangaroo...then she volunteers me for the triple! (Okay, I loved it)

Progress Notes

There are no IV poles in the girls room anymore!

Teagan is off the vapotherm and is on a blend of "wall" oxygen.  This means she gets 1/2 liter of part air part concentrated oxygen.  Big step forward.  She is still eating really well and steadily gaining weight.

Rianne is at 1 liter on her vapotherm and is doing well.  She sometimes has trouble digesting all her food so her feeds are still less than Tegan.

Brielle is at 2 on her vapotherm and is still doing well.  She had some fluid retention this week so was given some Lasix.  She is eating more and doing a better job digesting her food.  The doctor Saturday said that the girls are getting pretty boring which is a good thing.  The still desat but their spells are down to one or less a day.  Hopefully no more days of 3 or 4 nurses running in their room. 

Below are our finest moments...Mindy getting to hold two and I got to hold all three...there are no words for the feeling except ... blessed....

Mommy, I heard I'm going to have to share today...

Base jumping!
Can't wait to do this with the girls!


Teagan (on right) Brielle (on left) what's up, you don't want to hang out?

Mommy, Mommy...Bri doesn't want to cuddle

Bri leans back, leans back to get away from Teagan. She had a tough day...and just wanted some "alone" time
Brielle is really, really shy...

Brielle (left) really wants nothing to do with Teagan today...

Brielle looks so upset...her private kangarooing time has been violated

Mom has a talk with the girls about behaving like sisters...Brielle has the night to "think" about it...

Proud daddy...daddy...daddy...

There is a lot of wriggling before everyone gets comfortable...

Talk to the hand...this is my spot....

Tony realized how "boring" quotation fingers it would be to have just one...

Our first family picture!

Brielle (left) I'm so upset, I can't get any milk...Teagan and Rianne ... sis...that's daddy, only milk he brings is from the Kum and Go

Rianne (right) ... I have a question...are we doing this tomorrow, I just thought I would bring a seat or pillow or something so I don't keep getting elbowed...


Duck...duck...duck....goose!
