Nicholas and Joseph : Day 61!!!

Joseph hit the 5 pound mark last night!!! It was quite a milestone and I wanted to share the fun with all of you since you have been a part of these boys lives since day 1!!! Joseph gained 55 grams in one day, which is pretty impressive if you ask me! I had guessed he would be 5lb 1/2oz, but as you can see he hit 5lb 1.5oz!!! He is doing so well and we just need to get that little "puff" of oxygen that he is receiving off of him! He went through more than Nicholas though so he's entitled to that in my opinion!

Nicholas now weight 4lb 6.5oz, he gained 20 grams again from the night before, so were hoping that within a week or less that he can reach the 5lb milestone too! He was very alert last night when I was changing him, but as you can see from his pictures with his hat, he still is holding a lower than hoped for temperature at 97.9. The nurse said that earlier in the day he was doing great in the 98.6 range, but he may have just been tired from all of his activity the last few days. We are going to let him rest a little to see if that helps, and we'll keep the hat and warm clothes on him to make him comfortable!
