Sorry I haven't posted in a while...things have been pretty busy! Please keep LG in your prayers. She will have laser eye surgery in the morning to correct ROP. In past posts, I mentioned that the babies have their retinas checked every few weeks. Last night LG had another exam and the Dr. found stage 2 and 3 ROP in her eyes. He felt it best to go ahead and operate tomorrow. The surgery shouldn't take long, but they will have to intubate her. Please pray that the outcome is good and that she will not have any vision problems. The eye Dr. will perform the surgery in the NICU. LG is still taking all of her bottles and doing great with it! Now we just need her to put on weight. Here is a picture of my sweet angel

Callen is doing about the same. He is still having some heart rate drops and on caffeine. He is doing slightly better with the bottle but still not taking them consecutively. He is knocking on 6 lb! Here is a picture of him with LG

Sutter is doing well at home. He is growing like a weed! Last weigh in he was 5 lb. 15 oz. We don't have to go for anymore epigen shots...Woo hoo! He will have more blood work done Saturday to make sure his levels are still ok. We are getting into more of a routine with him. I will be so glad when he can go longer than 3 hrs. between feeds! Paul and I love snuggling with him in the bed!

That's all for now!
