Happy halloween!!!!!

Today was a fun busy day, the girls have been ecstatic since Max has been home! He's even been letting mom and dad sleep! I still have to wake up to pump for Ty so every three hours around the clock: pump, change diaper, feed, and back to sleep! Ty is doing good ate better today! Weighs the exact same though :-( its not a big deal but mommy wants him to be bigger! He almost ate the whole bottle for me tonight! Left 8 ml's he ate the whole bottle the feeding prior and the nurse says he looks like he's got the concept now. I think he isn't finishing his bottles because he isn't hungry!!!! He was all dressed for halloween I just didn't want to unwrap him ;-) I caught him in the middle of a big smile ;-) looks like a yawn but I assure you he was smiling!!!

Copy and paste

Boys are excellent! Ty's been doing really good on his feedings. FINALLY in a crib! ;-) when we got here this morning Ty was eating and I finished for the nurse and he drank all of his bottle which was twice in a row. Tonight they were a little more lazy, Ty only finished about half and I could swear Max knows what his brother is doing and slows down! It seems like every time Ty takes off Max is right there with him. We took our discharge class today, one step closer. Nothing else really today just that they are steady eating and I think they should be home next week! Here's a couple pics of the boys today, and Ty's new "crib"!! Lol oh and by the way, we have another paci lover on our hands! If its not a bottle Max must have that damn pacifier in his mouth. Ty's just like jayce slow eater and no paci ;-)

Future fullbacks!

Boys are doing good today! Way better care, Ty was fed EVERY bottle! Not much to report tonight but the fact that they both gained 3oz! Dr has them on fortified protein (not arbonne ;-( lol) they are gearing up and gaining weight to play for Green Bay one day haha and im pretty sure jason sees Olson by their bedside yelling at them for gaining too much! Lol So Max is now 5 lb 13 oz and Ty is now 4 lb 13oz! I can hear it now, they are gonna be fighting on who was bigger and who came out first, until they are older! Then neither one is gonna want to weigh more or be older hehe! Today when we got there a baby was going home ;-( made me sad! I can't wait for the day my boys are finally home! We take our discharge class tomorrow morning! So I know it getting closer but I know that I have to prepare myself to bring them home one at a time! It's gonna be REALLY hard and I'm going to be extremely sad but I'll cross that bridge when we get there! Prayer that Ty's lightbulb goes off and he starts eating just as good as his brother so he can come home at the same time It can happen and I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Mom's not happy!

So today we couldn't come up early, we had to wait until about 2. When we got here we realized Ty had not been fed his noon feeding and not only that they put it down his tube at 2:45 and expected to feed him a whole bother bottle at 3! That's when the old Brynn kicked in, I was pissed! Jason called the social worker and we had them moved ASAP. What was happening was that there is 3 babies to 1 nurse, 2 stable/easy babies and 1 critical baby. Well the baby the boys had to share their nurse with the past couple days needed A LOT of medical attention! His parents don't speak English so they get an interpreter and the nurse has to be there the whole time. When we were here the nurse was in there a good 2 hours and no one was there to watch the twins if we weren't. It's getting harder and harder to leave them at night especially when they hang Ty's food instead of bottle feed! How is he ever going to learn! Tonight when I fed him at his 9:00 feeding he took 29 out of the 40 ml!!! Max did the exact same. I thought by the time we got back tonight they would have Ty in a crib, I guess that was wishful thinking. The nurse supposedly ordered one at 3 and still no crib?! This place is starting to really get on my last nerve, well the boys are still doing good! Max is at 5 lb 10oz and Ty is 4lb 10oz!!!! They up'd their feedings again so mommy has to up her lack of sleep! Pumping every 2 hours is starting to wear on me but I got this!!! Saying goodnight to these sweet faces is hard when they aren't beside my bed! But soon the day will come and I'm getting really anxious!

Defective!

Max and Ty are doing well! Gaining weight and making progress! My problem is keeping up with their feeding! My goodness it seems like everyday they up their feedings! So max weighs 5lbs 9oz and Ty finally gained weight! Well maybe not finally, this kid has had 3 different isolets! They have been breaking on him! He has supposedly weighed the exact same for 3 days now and the Dr. was getting concerned! Well being mommy I could swear he was gaining, I hold him and look at home every night, I asked the "farting nurse" are you sure the bed isn't broken? (his isolet weighs him) she said no! So tonight I asked, can you weigh him on the scale and not in the bed? The nurse tonight wa much nicer and she said sure!!!! Lo and behold! He gained!!!!! ;-) hmmm its a miracle! Other than them both gaining they are steady and I can't wait to get them home so I can hold them anytime!!!!!!!

Booted!

So Jason and I came tonight to see that they moved my Ty out of our room and gave it to another baby, kinda made me mad because we do school work and spend time with the boys the past couple nights. It worked out good, put the girls to bed come to Fresno mommy gets to spend time and hold and feed the boys while daddy does school work and then we switch it up and make our way home about midnight/one in the morning. We had to leave early because we still have to get our work done;-( cutting my time short with my babies! Mommy is not happy! Well both boys weigh the exact same as the past 2 nights, Ty had to go back under the lamps because his bilirubin went back up AGAIN! If this kid could get away from the lamps they could put him in a crib already! I called the social worker today and she should have some answers for me in a day or so about transferring to Hanford! That would be much better. Making a quick trip up to Fresno just to deliver milk is killin me! Lol so the boys really are doing awesome and getting strong and healthy so they can come home to a house of chaos! Haha moving/school/2 kids in Fresno/2 kids in Lemoore and jayces school my goodness it's only been 2 weeks and it feels like a whole month!

Worn out!

These poor boys! The doctors ordered that they be bottle fed every feeding instead of every other. Max is chugging like his momma and wakes up a little before every feeding hungry! Ty wakes up too and sucks on his hand. He's still slowly getting there but this every feeding is wearing my little buddies out! Max is pretty much finishing off his whole bottle and Ty is still only about half way. We didn't have the same night nurse tonight and I was bummed! I was hoping to get their pics for their baby books! Today max gained 37 grams and Ty stayed the exact same as yesterday. Papa and bear came to see them today and papa said that they are looking way healthier than last week. Ty is starting to fill out a lot! Nothing else really changed today. Jason and I stayed late tonight so we could do their midnight feeding. I officially feel like a mom of boys considering I have been peed on by both of them now! I've never been peed or pooped on ;-) boys I see are a little sensitive when changing their diapers! *mental note* so anxious to get them home! Oh and I just have to add that Jason was getting ready to feed max tonight and the poor nurse farted and totally crop dusted Jason lol I thought it was pretty damn funny, he didn't, and the nurse is probably so embarrassed. Not only did he smell it, he heard it! Lol over all it was a good productive day! OH and the packers won!!!!! I took pics of their "cribs" lol so everyone could see their living quarters hehe
