Twins Update

Lucas weighed 4 pounds 6.2 ounces yesterday so he is past his birth weight. Rachael weighed 2 pounds 14 ounces so she is back to her birthweight now. Both are doing great. They had ultrasounds done on their heads on Thursday to check for bleeding and neither one had any, thank goodness. They do this will all preemies about a week or so after birth because of their blood vessels being so small. They said in a few days they will start trying the bottle. Rachael really likes her paci but Lucas will take it once in a while but mostly is not interested in it.

I forgot to add that Lucas had his first haircut last Saturday already. They needed to move his iv spot and his head was the only place left to put it. And with all his hair they needed to shave a little bit of it. But his hair is growing alot and he will probably need another one here shortly.
