3 Pound Babies

Since Lindy's reintubation, things have been very quiet. Yesterday marked one week off the ventilator for Will. We are so proud of him! He has to be reminded to breath every once in awhile, but overall he has done great!

Lindy is enjoying her ventilator. It is a lot easier for someone (or something) else to do all the work! We'll eventually get her off too.

The babies are both over three pounds now. Will is 3 pound 11 ounces today and Lindy is 3 pounds 2 ounces. You can really tell that Will is packing on the weight. He has started to really fill out. Lindy still looks pretty small. Will's preemie clothes are starting to fit pretty good and some of Lindy's still swallow her! I can't believe my one pound babies are now over three pounds!!

Hope everyone has a good weekend. Go Wake!!

Hi Jamie and Drew--
I am a friend of Erin P. and she forwarded me your website.
I had a preemie baby in July 2006--KINSEY---she was born at 25 weeks gestation--1 lb 7 1/2 oz. We did the whole NICU trip that you are on. (Kinsey was in the NICU for 7 months). Your pictures and the events you are going through are so familiar to me. Your experience is a bit different as you have more babies to tend to....
I wanted to invite you to Kinsey's website to see the path she has taken. If you want to and have time email me at kimnealson@hotmail.com and I will send you directions to her carepage.
This is quite a road you guys are on and I pray for good health and much strength for you and your family.
