AriaSorry the pictures are not as clear as the previous pictures. Previously I had been using my mom's really nice camera. These past weeks I had to use mine which isn't quite as nice, so they are a little bit blurry. They have done really great this past week. Zachary weighs 4 lbs 4 oz and Aria weighs 3 lbs 4 oz. Zachary is gaining almost an ounce a day and Aria is gaining a 1/2 an ounce a day. I asked the doctor why she isn't gaining as fast as Zach is and she said that little girls usually burn more calories as they are more active. They seem to move their arms more then boys I guess. But she is strong as ever. They both have started taking a bottle once a shift. (twice a day) But probably will move up to twice a shift because they have mastered the one feeding. It was so fun to hold them and feed them. They burped good too. Probably on Tuesday they will put both of them into an open crib together so they can keep each other warm and be together like they were in the womb. I'm very excited for that. Samuel has been sick for the last couple of days so we have been unable to visit them. We don't want to pass anything on to them but we miss them very much. We feel confident in the care they are receiving with their nurses and that helps out. We are starting to see their little personalities coming out. It is so much fun to interact with them. We are so very excited to bring them home. Hopefully in a few more weeks.
