48h

 48h now that we all came back home. A handful of hours slept for us, a lot more grams gained by the little ones, and an incredible attachment that grows every second inside us. They make us laugh, they make me cry (the lack of sleep is probably adding to the emotion). They are so adorable, fragile and stinky. They make so many noises from all their airways that we feel like we sleep in the amazonian jungle. The first night we just couldn't close our eyes, lost n wonder and fear. The second night they made us laugh out loud.They carry with them the words "carpe diem". enjoy now because now is already past as you type those words, and the future is coming fast for them. Theo has officially doubled his weight since birth. Fragile and volatile instants, we love you. and it does not really matter if to not miss those I have to stay up all night, as this is just pure delight. My son is learning how to show his biceps!!! little monkey hiding in kangour...

Home!!!!!!!!

Theo profite de la vue de sa chambre une dernière fois. Beaux gosses!!! Prêts pour la décollage Me and ma girl à la maison!!!!!!!!!!!!! Theo ouvre grand les yeux sur son nouvel univers Sophie fait sa première sieste dans sa nouvelle chambre après avoir glorieusement avalé tout son biberon et fait pipi sur papa une fois de plus.  

48 hour test has started!

After asking the doctor if we could stop adding the yucky tasting fortifiers altogether, the little boy and girl have starting eating like champs.  They went onto their own schedule yesterday afternoon, and since then they've been passing the "test" of waking up hungry within four hours, eating lots by bottle before getting tired, and gaining weight.  Today Theo and Sophie each sucked down 70 to 80 mL's!  Anticipated coming home date could be Monday afternoon!

Happy One Month Anniversary!

We had hoped that the little ones would be home by now, but that would have been unusual.  Nonetheless (quand meme!) they are progressing really well.  Theo is finally getting over his dislike for the taste of the supplement they add to the milk (it adds calories, which they need to grow their brains!) and Sophie is working hard at catching up with her brother.  Ever since starting to eat again she has been taking her milk by bottle and is now up to 38cc per feeding.  Theo eats 48cc each time.  They both eat with gusto! Today is the one-month anniversary of their birth date. We celebrated, as you'll see by the photos. It was extremely pleasurable. Mama was happy. Add caption Add caption

NICU - Semaine No. 4

Presque comme un bebe "normal" --> 2320 grams! Theo mangera avec Papa, mais Papa n'est pas encore reussi avec Sophie! [Evidement, elle prefere l'infirmiere.]   Demain ce sera le anniversaire de une mois de naissance.  Il y a un tradition de chinois de celebrer cette journée, mais les enfants ne sera pas chez nous et Papa dois travailler pour son lecture que il va donner jeudi matin.  Donc, Mama va prevu a manger le canard chinois tout seule quand meme.  Il va faire de bonne lait pour les p'tits piggies. Et Mama va profiter, yum yum. [Desole si le video est trop grosse pour telecharger...] [Remarque que lui a commence a crier quand Laurent a parle de Mitt Romney et Bain Capital!]
