10 Days Old

Tricia and I just returned from the hospital and are happy to report that the boys are making nice progress.  We also were able to hold them for almost two hours tonight which is heavenly.

Anthony is now 3 lb 15 oz and is essentially off the CPAP and was on room air and/or a nasal cannula all day.  He is eating well (via a feeding tube) and his PDA is closed.

Alex is now about 3 lb and is still on the CPAP, but on a much lower level.  He started eating today (via a feeding tube) so we expect him to start to pack on the pounds once his digestive system kicks in.  His PDA has almost closed.
