Seconds for Thomas

Tonight our visit to the NICU was pretty uneventful. Both boys were sleeping when we arrived, and so we had to be mean parents and wake them up. Thomas ate first, and when Jenny thought that he was finished, she passed him to me. Then Michael ate. After Michael finished, Thomas was ready for more food. He had gone 4.5 hours in between feeds, so needless to say, he was more hungary than usual.

Both boys have been eating good enough to continue to gain weight. Michael weighed in at 5 lbs, 12 oz and Thomas weigh 5 lbs, 9 oz. In a few days, they both should be a whopping 6 pounds! They are getting bigger and all the nurses comment on how much they have grown since they were born. I must say that they are bigger and it makes me feel more comfortable handling them. When they were very small they seemed so fragile. Now they are ready to rock climb.

In other news around the Dillner household, St. Benedict's Brewing Company began its fourth recipe this weekend. For more on this, visit the St. Benedict Brewing Company blog.
