July 24th Update

We received some better news today as Faith's murmur could not be heard by the doctor. It seems the Ibuprofen treatment is working. So hopefully surgery will not be needed. She also gained 30 grams.

Ashleigh's echocariogram showed she does not have the Patent Ductus Arteriosus like Faith. She does have a small opening they expect to close on its own. No IB treatments are needed for Ashleigh.

The doctors expect to have both girls eating breast milk again in the next day or so.

We just need to get rid of our colds so we can go see them.

Hello there,

Congratulations on the newest members of the clan! Mom told me just the other day that the girls had arrived. Had been wondering when the pics would get out. Great to see the pictures. No pictures really was getting me worried that things weren't going very well. Reading the blog puts things back into perspective. Hopefully you two will get over your colds soon. Been thinking about you all since I heard the news.
Hugs to you all,
Bobbi

We are constantly thinking of you guys and we love you! So happy to hear the Ibuprofen appears to be working. Can't wait to hold these little peanuts in our arms and watch them grow and run around with the rest of the crazy bunch :)
