Rachael weighs 3 pounds 12 ounces now and Lucas weighs 5 pounds 7 ounces. We took a car seat up the hospital yesterday to make sure it passes their test and it did. They put Rachael in it to see if she could keep her oxygen level up and not have any apnea episodes for an hour and she passed. The word is right now that Miss Rachael might be coming home on Tuesday. Lucas might come home the end of the week but he has to go 5 days without having any apnea episodes and so far he has not gone one day without one but when we left yesterday he did not have any yet so we are hoping he kept up the good work.
We also took their Christmas outfits up yesterday for pictures. I will post them when I get them downloaded. We took several but only a few came out good because they like to move their arms alot and they seem to do it at the same time. Must be a twin thing.
We are in the process now of getting the house ready for their homecoming. It still is hard to believe that they will be 4 weeks old on Tuesday already, it really has gone by fast. So hopefully they both might be home for Christmas!!! I keep hearing the song I will be home for Christmas on the radio and tell them i hope they will be.
These two little ones are the best Christmas present ever!!!

I totally understand how hard leaving them at the hospital is! It is nuts! I cry as well when I leave. I know it is a good place for them but I still get all worked up. These babies are the best Christmas present ever arent they? I am so happy to have them!
How exciting that your babies are coming home in time for the holiday! That is so wonderful! I am so happy for you and your family. Gettting the house ready is a process isnt it? It will be such a great homecoming.
Your photos of the babies are sooo darn cute. Look at that red hair! My goodness!! I hope that you are doing well and in great anticipation of your children!
