All is continuing to go well at the Dillner home. The boys are still eating well and sleeping well. Typically during the night, they only wake up to eat and then go back to sleep. Mom and dad are very thankful for that.
The highlight of the boys day is when they get to have tummy time. They get to spend a few minutes on their tummy, so they can strengthen their neck. The boys either love it or hate it depending on their mood. One day earlier in the week, I think it was Sunday, we had Michael on his tummy and he was not happy. He had worked himself up on to side, his favorite position. His arm must have been in the right place because after a little more kicking, sqiurming and working, he had himself on his back. David and I were totally amazed. A little while later we had Thomas on his tummy and he did the same thing. Amazing!
Today I took Michael to the eye doctor, to have a check up. The doctor was looking to make sure that all the blood vessels around the retna have developed. He checked Michael out in the NICU and was pleased with his progress, but wanted to see him one more time to make sure he continued in the right path. Luckily all is well and we don't have to go back to the eye doctor. It is no fun for Michael. They use a small instrument to hold his eyelids open and then another instrument to move his eyeball so he can see inside. Michael cried during this time, but otherwise he did well. I am sure he is glad as well that he does not have to go back.
Next week will be interesting as David is going back to work. So I will be on my own with the boys all day long.
One final note, more pictures are in the photo gallery! Enjoy!

Thank you for all the wonderful pictures!! It is wonderful to hear that all is going well. The boys look like they are continuing to grow, and they look so happy at home! I am sure it is wonderful to be able to relax (did I say that word) at home with them!
I guess when you posted the picture earlier and you asked who was who, I definately knew. With the two of them together now, it isn't quite as obvious. When they were littler, they had a few differences you could pick out.
So tell us, how do you tell them apart?
Thanks again for all the updates and also the pictures!!!!!!!!!!
Hugs and Kisses to all!
Aunt Anita, Uncle Dennis, Dustin and Dylan
