Roller coaster anyone?

Wow, where do I start? Yesterday was such a blow, but once we talked with the Neonatalogist we felt a lot better. He explained that it's not as scary as it sounds and we really need to wait for the next ultrasound. Aside from the ultrasound results, the boys are doing really well. Today, Jyusef and I didn't go see them until about 4:00. I was completely wiped out and my body was screaming at me to rest. Boy did I ever get a shock when I walked into the NICU....Jaxon is OFF THE RESPIRATOR AND BREATHING ON HIS OWN!!!!! His nurse was shocked that they didn't call and tell me. I couldn't believe my eyes, my strong boy had on his C- PAP and was just as relaxed as could be. It was like I was looking at a completely different baby. His nurse said that he was very agitated this morning, but as soon as they took that tube out of his throat his whole body relaxed. He also had his first poop today and apparently it was a big one. Again the nurses are all shocked because he hasn't started breast milk yet. If he advances at the same rate as big brother, he might start tomorrow or Monday. Jaxon also had his last line removed out of his belly today so hopefully I will be able to hold him soon. His pick line went in yesterday and he is doing well with it. Praise God!

Mr. Jordan is still doing well and seems to be loving his new digs. He is doing pretty well on the breast milk. Hopefully, he will start getting some fat on him so he can maintain his body temperature a little better. He's right on the borderline and I really don't want him to have to go back in a warmer. Keep in mind he is laying in just his diaper (wouldn't you be cold if you were just hanging out in your underwear). I have these adorable preemie shirts that have easy access to all the lines and hopefully they will let the boys where them. I can't remember if I posted this or not but Jordan is being weighed everyday now. We plan on only asking once every other week just because they aren't going to gain that much on a daily basis. The doctor did write the official order for me to be able to hold Jordan, the catch is that I can only hold him once a day. I'm gonna save this for my evening visits so it will be the last I do before I go home. Last night he was a little too cold for me to hold so hopefully tonight he will be nice and toasty.

Please continue to pray for the boys, specifically for their ultrasounds to come back clear this week. A friend of mine today told me to ask God for big things and He will bless us big. So I ask you all to be specific and ask BIG for my boys.
