You are a level headed guy Jon, your babies are lucky to have you! Thank you! We are trying really hard to capture all of the data. We have to keep track of who's doing what (for at least a little while) like they did at the hospital. It's hard enough to remeber how much one kid poops a day. We have som
I never kept a feeding schedule with my boys. I fed them when they were hungry. Whether we like it our not schedules are apart of our new order. They are just guidelines though. I don't intend to leave a baby hungry but I am sure you can imagine how difficult it would be if one eats a 1:00am one at 2:30am and the other at 3:00am. There just wouldn't be any time for the rest it is going to take to be successful at this. We have a nurse who has
Friday night we spent the night with Tabitha at the hospital. They call it the bonding room. I think it is really more of a test to see if you can make it through the night unassisted with your baby. I guess we passed because she came home with us yesterday afternoon. (We didn't really have to do it because we visit so often but we did it just get used to th
cool quotes, annoying pablo. Whats wrong with the quotes?
One more thing oh great king of the tuck tail and run crowd... Respond to my comments or are you out of lies to tell? Chicken?
It is not just me [/quote] Yeah, but it's just you that I was laughing about. [quote]What an ASS you and others are I'd rather be an ass than a deranged old fool. Were you whining for those oil and gas companies in the 80's when the industry nearly went bust? What about all of the people who lost their livelyho
When I deposited my yearly bonus Gene, I laughed all the way to the bank knowing that you sufffered at the pump for my fat check.
How's everything going at your end? How are the babies doing? Everything is still ... well .. everything. The babies are doing fine. We have two at 5 pounds and one trailing right behind. They are starting to get taking the bottle down better with each feeding. With any luck we should have them home in a couple of weeks
A few years ago our IT Director was let go. When he left there were many bills that we had to figure out what they were for. The former manager had a bad habit of changing things and waiting months to disconnect a service. One of them happened to be a long haul T1 circuit between two of our offices. The guy who picked up the bill paying responsibility couldn't figure out what this $2500 a month circuit was so he had it disconnected. Flash for
It seems you like to piss and moan and whine about a particular topic and then when your baseless information is proven false you run away with your tail between your legs. Later you spout off more crap and pretend like you never shouted fire in the theater at all. You're a waste of bandwidth.
When can you bring them home? Is there a specific milestone (like weight) or just a general level of health and ability? It looks like it may be a couple of weeks. They are feeding from a bottle now once or twice a day. They will have to be feeding from the bottle at every feeding of course. They can't have any spells for seven days(read: apnea o
This is one of the sweetest things I've ever read. And one of the most amazing things I have ever felt.
I'll gladly follow your instructions. I plan on making as many people possible sick of my name. I want to spawn spin off articles about how daddy blogs are so boring and pathetic that no one really wants to read them. I'll start here! Babies update: Everyone is 4 pounds now! Chloe just edged above four pounds yesterday. Tabitha is up to 4lbs 7 ozs and Parrish is 4lbs 5 ozs. Parrish has mastered the bottle in the few times he has been
no building should begin in the below sea level areas. Once again you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. Each day Louisiana looses a football field size of land to the Gulf of Mexico. They can build levees that could withstand a category 5 storm and the problem will not be solved. A storm surge will most likely push a lot of wat
Col The money to help those displaced home owners in the state of Louisiana has been here since the summer. 7.5 billion to be exact. There are 125,000 eligible applicants for the money. 90 or so thousand have applied. The last count of people who received a settlement is 120. Six months have passed and the organization hired by Louisiana Governor Blanco continues to promise a faster process. I know you ignore results that do not conform to your ideals but the feds gav
Here is hoping their health gets better and better by the day. They really are quite healthy. The nurses all hope to get them on their shift because they don't really require much ... and they think they are cute! <TD class="mb-Body-Quote-Text"
Aren't those the most darling little babies? Their cuteness went up by a factor of 10 when they put them a crib together. I was so overwhelmed at the delicacy I am very comfortable aroun
I know the images arent showing up. Sorry. The picture of their hats were taken on the 16th and they were in the crib together on the 15th. I can't edit the article so I'll post links to the other pictures. Link Link
The babies are all doing well. Tabitha and Parrish ar over four pounds now and Chloe is right behind. They put on an ounce or two each day. We hare still having issues with them dropping their heart rate or haveing and apnea spell but as their weight increases these symptoms should go away. Parrish and Chloe have a small heart murmer and will be checked on M
Beautiful words... Amen
I never know what to say to these sort of posts. I guess that is a good thing because his condition becomes a regular thought throughout my day. I am also not so good at praying and I think I will print Forever's prayer and print it out. When thoughts of Mod's condition cross my mind I will take it out and pray those words. I don't interact so much with you Eli here at JU but I am pulling for your return. Come back. JU will be less without you.
I love them! I got them a few days ago and I have taken their pictures in them a couple of times. They look ok on the digital cam but when I bring them home they are blurry. I haven't been able to hold them this week but we are going when they won't be feeding this weekend. (We can't hold them while they eat) As soon as I get a good picture I'll send it your way. They all fit well and have a little growing room in them too. I am so excited that they will get to use them. The n
Gatorade? And that's a darn cute baby!
Is the "eye gunk" the result of a clogged tear duct? No. The cultures came back after they tested them again and they showed ecoli bacteria, possibly from some cross contamination. They spend so much time in the little beds that it isn't a big surprise that some cross contamination is going to happpen. We hold each of the babies when we visit so
I see several of the babies in question everyday as I walk the halls of the NICU. Some hooked up to the most amazing and crazy machines I have ever seen. I see doctors, respiratory therapist and nurses provide care and comfort to these children. For two weeks I have watched a little one that I was sure wouldn't make it, go on and on. I know that it is more than machines that are keeping him here. He is so tiny and amazing. This child must be destined for great things. <table cellpadding
