Twins Come Home

David and Alyssa came home on Thursday evening and they are both doing great! They are eating like champs and growing well.

This evening, Cami gave them each a half bath - i.e., washing their heads, faces, and necks. Both of them stayed totally asleep during the whole process.

The twins are here!!

David Merrill Birdno & Alyssa Gene Birdno

Even through she is much larger than David, Alyssa is in the NICU. They needed her to improve her lung capacity and get her blood sugar up. Things are coming along well in the NICU, and they are optimistic she can get out later today. They decreased her I.V. and she is feeding from a bottle pretty regularly. If they can cut off the I.V. totally and her blood sugar stays up, she will be able to come into Cami's room.
