They're Here!! - 5/22-6/1

May 22, 2012

This is the first time I got to hold Caleb! 

All the tubes on his face are for the CPAP that he was on the first time.
They've started using a new, less bulky system since then.
He looks like he could float out into space. :)

Caleb's first real peek out. :)
Oh, and he's off of the CPAP and on the Vapo-therm!!

Jonathan's first time holding Caleb!

First time holding, and kangarooing, Zeke!! 
He's was off the high-frequency vent and was on the regular one.



June 1, 2012 - The big boys meet the little boys for the first time!

Miss Ronia is the "Child Life Specialist." She is great at her job!
Here she is teaching the boys about how important it is 
to wash your hands and talk in a quiet voice when you visit the NICU.

Miss Ronia is using a baby doll to demonstrate all the tubes and wires 
that will be on the babies so the boys don't get scared. 
Again, Miss Ronia is great at her job and we appreciate her so much!!

Here's Phin next to Zeke!

Here's Asher next to Caleb.

The big boys did a very good job with their first visit. They washed their hands, used hand sanitizer, and talked in a quiet voice. Asher wasn't too interested in the babies. I didn't know if he was bored or if he was scared. Either way, he did well. And Phin was so excited to see them. He talked very quietly to them through their little "port holes" and politely introduced himself. "Hi. I'm Phin. I'm your big brother." So cute! :)
