Happy Halloween!

Yesterday Matt and I spent most of the day in the NICU with Paityn and Conner! When we arrived we got Halloween presents from the babies! At 3 days old they already have gotten to do some arts and crafts :)






Both babies are doing wonderful!! Conner is now taking all of his feeding with a bottle and is doing great with them. He has a tube through his nose so they can check his stomach after each feeding. I got to hold Conner for the first time and even got to do his 3:00 feeding! Since he had been having a little more tummy trouble than Paityn and due to the phototherapy lights we have not gotten to hold him much. Matt was able to hold him 2 times the first day but that was it.

While I fed Conner, Matt got to feed Paityn for the first time! Paityn eats so fast so the nurse was not able to get a picture of him feeding her. Yesterday morning, Paityn was taken off of her phototherapy and we were able to have her out almost the entire time we visited and had Conner out for about an hour! We even got to put an outfit on Paityn!! It amazes us how they know that they are both next to each other. The nurses say that they always are doing the same things around the same time :) It amazes us how God has blessed us and we can not thank him enough! We truly have 2 little miracles!
