May 23, 2007...Rachael's Sweet 16 Birthday Kiss

I haven't been very good at updating things the past few days. Things have been going well for both boys. They are both breathing room air with no nasal prongs or any type of assistance. Jacob has been on antibiotics for the past 9 days for a possible stomach infection, but nothing grew on his culture, so it is unknown what was causing him problems.

Robby has started to "nipple" .... both on a bottle and me. He is still fed the majority of his feeds via his nose because he is still too young to feed on his own. Jacob has not been eating since he was on antibiotics, but once he is off, I will try to get him to start eating on his own too. He seems to suck his binky better than Robby does, so I think he will do better at first.

Robby put on regular (baby) clothes today. He looked so mature.

Yesterday, May 22nd, was their cousin Rachael's 16th birthday. She came here w/ her mom and saw the babies for the first time. She spent quite a bit of time holding Robby and got her Sweet 16 Kiss from him!

Rachael's Sweet 16 Kiss !!

Rachael (16 Years Old), Robby (25 Days Old)

Could this be a future babysitter??
