Graduation of Sorts

Today, Aubrey and Finn were moved from their isolettes to cribs. It has given me a bit of anxiety to have them out in the open without the protection of their “sneeze guards.” However, it was time. Both of them weigh at least 1700g (3 1/4 lbs) and were overheating in their isolettes.

Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since Aubrey’s last surgery. I got to hold him today (face out) and he gets to eat tomorrow. I think he is as excited to eat as I was to hold him. He’s been absolutely starving!


All of them are 34 weeks old today. We’ve been in the NICU for 8 weeks and I expect we must be about 1/2 way through our journey. We’ve made it this far, so we can certainly do it again!
