Today Wes's feedings have been increase to 40 ml each feeding and Shea's have gone up to 24 ml.  They each are gaining weight (small amounts) - Shea is back up to birth weight of 3 lbs 4 oz's and Wes is below his at 5 lbs 12 oz's.  There levels for having jaundice have gone up slightly so both will be rechecked in 2 days.  Today we had our first picture of them together and our first family picture.

We also had Aunt Laura, Aunt Michelle, and Grandma Bonnie come visit.  Grandma Bonnie was able to hold both Wes & Shea, Aunt Laura (who is also Shea's Godmother) was able to hold Shea and Aunt Michelle held Wes (her Godson) again.  So it has been a pretty eventfull day.

Rob and I have been doing all daytime diaper changes, temperature checks, and I have been starting to breastfeed with them (which is a slow going process with preemies).  They seem to be catching on nicely the last day.  We continue to feel very blessed to have them as part of our life and they are such easy going babies.
