Today was another big day for the twins. The tanning process continued throughout the day, but more importantly, for the first day of their young lives, their folks weren't right next door thinking about them. Mom and Dad headed home around 3:30 PM with mixed feelings - elated to be finally heading home after a solid month in the hospital, but at the same time heart-broken to be leaving the boys behind. Thankfully, they are in the constant care of the NICU nurses and doctors, who have already proved just how awesome they all are!
Quinn was upgraded to a cannula nasal tube, which is about the smallest nasal tube there is before breathing on your own. Corbin still has on the more nose-piecey breathing apparatus. Everything is still very stable with both little guys. Corbin was placed stomach-down for part of his tan, and the nurses even had the gall to take off his diaper to get a tan on his mini rear end (no pictures of that!).
Mom still has quite the head and back ache from delivery, but it is getting better with each day. A month of bedrest does horrible things to muscle mass! Hopefully a few days or R&R at home will help to ease the pain and tension in her back.
