Homecoming #1

Ellie came home from the hospital today. She celebrated her first day home by eating more for Thanksgiving dinner than she had during her entire week in the hospital. I plan on celebrating her first day home with a decent night’s sleep in our own bed for a change.

The twins continue to do wonderful. They’re both tolerating their breast milk feedings very well. Hopefully they’ll keep ratcheting up the amount of breast milk and ratcheting down the Preemie Chow. Ian is down to one bile light, and Tory has no bile lights so we can actually see his face and not a protective eye mask. We gave them baths for the first time last night, a process similar to a sponge bath, except we used cotton pads and significantly less water. Now that they’re cleaned up, Ellie swears they both look exactly like me. Poor kids.

Regular blogging may resume tomorrow, provided I survive the post-Thanksgiving shopping.
