Windows on the Wasatch

Good evening,

We just returned from a lovely evening of fine dining at the cafeteria (aka "Windows on the Wasatch"). A nice little date, probably to become a weekly tradition - and in all seriousness, the burgers & chicken fingers were delicious!

Today is another milestone day - 29 weeks!!! As we are frequently reminded that every week (and to a lesser extent, every day) the babies can spend growing inside mommy is a victory, because they are better protected (from infection) and better nourished inside than they would be in the NICU. However, the Drs have felt confident all along that if the babies were to be born in the next short while, the prognosis would be good and the babies would not only survive, but succeed with some medical help.

The only update is a small, simple one - the babies are easier to track down and monitor because they don't wiggle as much, this means they are growing and gaining all important weight! It's a good thing for all involved!

It's hard to believe we have been here almost two weeks. In some ways it's gone by pretty quickly, in other ways (probably for Erin, mostly), it has dragged on.
