Holding Our Girls

Emily and Katherine were moved to an open crib together on Sunday during my visit that afternoon. It was so special to move them back together...side by side again!

Daniel and I got to hold the girls at the same time for the first time this afternoon. They have both been off of oxygen for several days, and they are having their IVs removed tonight. Emily is being given 5 bottles a day and Katherine has 6. Daniel fed Katherine a bottle, which she took in 5 minutes flat. I fed Emily, who is a much slower eater, and it took her 25 minutes. We were both in love just holding them, singing to them, and telling them about how much their big sister and brother can't wait to meet them!
