Due Date

Thursday, September 5

The Marsh girls were due to arrive today...I guess they didn't get that memo. Devyn and Kinley are 80 days old already.

Kinley is doing well at home. She had her first outing today when she went to lunch with Mom and Grandma Carol, and then did a little shopping. She is already ruling the house. She likes to be involved in what's going on around her. Tonight she fussed each time I set her down, so she ended up "helping" me clean the kitchen after dinner.

We have some great news to share about Devyn...she should be coming home on Saturday! Her feeding troubles seem to have disappeared almost overnight. On Tuesday morning when we left the hospital with Kinley, Devyn pulled her own feeding tube out. Apparently she was trying to tell us that she was finished with it. Her feedings for the rest of that day were so-so, but then Wednesday and all day today she has been eating like a champ! Her feeding tube is still out and she has been finishing all of her bottles on her own.

Devyn is so excited to come home!
 
Tonight I brought in Devyn's carseat so she can do her 90 minute challenge tomorrow. Now that she is so close to coming home, she does not have to be on a set schedule in the NICU. She is allowed to eat whenever she is awake and interested. She loves to sleep! Sometimes the nurses have to wake her up because she's been sleeping so long. 

I can't wait to get the girls back together again. Sometimes I wonder if they even remember each other! And Devyn needs to get home before Kinley completely takes over the house!
