Thomas 7/13/06 5:51pm
Everyone is doing well. Ashley is feeling much better and walked around a good bit today. If we can get to rest some more that would be good but there are so many interruptions today in the hospital. Lactation specialist, doctors, nurses, photographers, record-keepers, etc. all day long...
They have moved Thomas into the NICU with Elizabeth. He wasn't keeping any food down and his blood sugar level was staying low. Both are doing well in the NICU, Elizabeth's blood sugar level is normal now and hasn't had any apnea episodes today. Everyone at the hospital assures us the things affecting the babies are normal for preemies and nothing to worry about. We'll just be glad when we can have them in the room with us. It's hard to keep seeing their little bodies with all kinds of tubes and wires attached but we know they're taking good care of them in the NICU. Unfortunately the little incubators (or whatever they're called) that they're in are on opposite sides of the unit so they're not close to each other. I'm sure they miss each other after being in the womb together for so long. We got to hold Elizabeth for awhile tonight after she ate. It was great to see Ashley holding her, she really hasn't seen Elizabeth much at all yet.
Thanks for all the comments, e-mails, and phone calls. I still have a bunch of calls to make so don't feel left out if I haven't had a chance to call you yet.:)

Thanks everybody for your warm wishes and prayers! David and I are waiting outside the NICU right now to see the twins. They are closed to visitors because they are admitting a new patient. Will post more later.
Love to all!
