22 Days in the NICU and their home

Susana, Don Ofilio and I went to the hospital and were pleasantly suprpised to hear that both girls would be coming home today. Not only that, but McKenzie crested 5 pounds today. (5 lbs 0.2 ozs) So we have two girls that actually look like small newborns and not tiny preemies.

In the picture above, Susana and the girls pose with one of our NICU nurses Yvonne. Yvonne had the girls for probably 6-9 day shifts over the three weeks we were there. Some of the other nurses that had the girls for multiple days are: Debbie, Elizabeth, Sarah, Stacey, Christine, Christopher, Jossy, Korena, Tori and a host of others. Thanks to all the wonderful nurses for a job well done. Now if only we could have them at home too!

Granny, Rebecca, and Andy went to Briseis' 1st birthday party this afternoon. Susana and I would have gone, but with the twins home, we stayed with them. Rebecca reported that everyone had a good time, though.
