A move, another move, and one more soon....

Again, things happen very fast in the NICU. On Monday, our babies were moved to a different hospital. Since they are doing so well and the UNC NICU is very crowded, they were moved to a step down "special care nursery" at Rex hospital. We were a little hesitant about the move since we love the nurses at UNC but Rex is very nice. The nursery is new and cozy. We have our own private room and the chairs are very comfy. We do miss the people at UNC but Rex is still a great place to be.

Another move is in the future. We have bought a house and close at the end of July. Just because life wasn't hectic enough for us... If anyone wants to help us out, this is your opportunity. We will probably need lots of help unpacking and settling in. We will let you know the exact dates soon.

Finally, Marcus may be on the move soon. Don't be surprised if you see pictures of him at home very soon:)

Cute pictures of the day...MIA! Mia is a SGA baby, meaning she is very small for her gestational age. At just under 3 lbs, she is teensy tiny for a 34 week baby. However, developmentally, she is very similiar to both Marcus and Josie. You don't often see 2+ pound babies in clothes but here she is. Our precious serious baby girl.



Despite the fact she has gained the most weight since birth, due to Mia's size and lack of body fat she will need to stay in the special care nursery for several more weeks. It will be hard having the other two at home and her still stuck at the hospital but we are very lucky she is a healthy and happy little peanut.

Here are a few cute shots of Josie and Marcus. These two were constantly on top of each other and battling it out in my belly. Now they look like best friends :)



Mom update: I can fit in my wedding rings again! Only 15 more pounds to lose!

Just like Dorethy in the Wizard of Oz said! Things change so quickly around here. We are all so blessed with these three wonderful healthy babies. You two are wonderful parents already and so it will continue to get better and better.

Love Mom aka(Grammy)
