Today was bath day again. Once again neither or the girls were real impressed, but overall they did well. After their baths I put them in one of their Christmas outfits. One of the nurses bought them Christmas red onesies that say "who need Santa, I've got grandparents", so cute! I wil post pictures later.
Emma continues to need CPAP. Please pray earnestly that God makes Emma stronger so that she does not need the CPAP anymore. I ask that you also boldly ask God to heal Emma's reflux. Both of these are hurdles for her right now that really need some prayers to help her overcome them. Her feedings are still the same. She continues to have too many alarms to come off CPAP, but thanksfully they are all brief and self-resolved. Emma's weight tonight was 3 lbs 2 oz (1425 grams). Adalyn continues to do well off the CPAP. They increased her feeds today to 10.5 mL/hour. She is still occassionally spitting up so they are waiting to start compressing her feeds. Oddly enough her spit ups seem to be at the same time as she poops. Is that because she is working so hard or because even she thinks they stink...we may never know :) Her weight tonight was 3 lbs 9 oz (1630 grams).
Please pray for the requests listed above as well as that God continues to help them grow, develop and be free from infection. Also please join us in thanking God that they continue to do well as well as for their weight gain, praise God!

Can't wait to see the pictures. The grandmas will all need to have copies. What a wonderful nurse to get them such cute outfits. Prayers lifted up for all of you and all the concerns with the twinners. God's blessings for all of you. As we look upon His gift, the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, we give Him all the glory and thanks for the blessings we have been given. Faith-Hope-Love.....Janice Hettinger
