Update

Here is a quick run down on what's going on with the boys:

* Jordan*
- CPAP pressure of 7, will be turned down to 5 tomorrow
- Weighs 3 lbs 8 or 9 oz
- O2 saturation of 21% (room air!)

*Jaxon*
- CPAP pressure of 7, will be turned down to 5 tomorrow
- Weighs 4 lbs 6 oz
- O2 saturation of 23%

The CPAP lowest setting is 5 so if they do will with that then they will go to nasal cannula in a week. YAY! They boys really hate their CPAPs and I am told that the nasal cannula is MUCH more comfortable. The best thing about them being on the cannula is that they finally get to nurse (sorry if that it T.M.I. for some of you reading). This is a really big step and a moment I've waited my whole life for (you have to be a woman to understand).

We did try to upload a video from Friday but we are experiencing technical difficulties so please standby. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers, we love you guys!
