Today was extremely busy for us because the babies had a number of doctor appointments. Our first stop was back at the NICU in Morristown to do a download of Savannah's Apnea monitor. It was nice to see their doctors and a few of the nurses who took such great care of them. As of today, Savannah no longer needs to be on the Apnea monitor..YEAH, finally free of wires. I must admit this will be an adjustment for me because I never really worried about Savannah because I knew the machine would let me know if there was a problem. It will be nice for her not to have those annoying leads stuck to her.

Then we were off to see their Pulmonologist. We really like this doctor and have asked him to take over the care of Ashley as well. For those of you who don't know, Ashley has severe Asthma and has been hospitalized seven times as a result. The doctor was impressed with how well the babies seemed to be handling the cold that they have. However, as mentioned before he would like us to do breathing treatments while they are sick, even though they have no sign of wheezing. We also met with a dietician who is working with us to get Charlton situated with a formula that works. We have also started to add rice to his bottle. We are hoping this will help him sleep better, especially through the night. We go back in 6 weeks for a follow up.

Savannah's eye appointment was canceled due to her doctor being sick, but she will have her eyes checked next week.

Our last stop was the hand surgeon who has been following Savannah in the NICU for her thumb that turned black. As I mentioned one time earlier the color in her finger came completely back. The surgeon was very impressed with the mobility and looks of her finger and said "she definitely dodged a bullet", I said "thank god". So overall we had a great day and the babies are doing wonderful.
