Happy Valentine's Day!

The girls are both doing really well. Mallory is still getting 6 bottles a day. Kelby is now getting three bottle feedings a day. Mallory is currently 6 lb 1 oz and Kelby is 5 lb 6 oz. They're both getting so big. Looking back at their first pictures we're amazed at how much they've grown and how much progress they have made.

We spoke to the doctor yesterday for a while about their progress. She thinks they are both doing really well. No definite word on when we might get to bring them home - we may get Mallory before Kelby, but we're not sure how all that is going to work out just yet.

She talked to us a little more about Kelby's brain bleed. She had a Grade 3 on the right side and a Grade 4 on the left side. The grade 3 has apparently resolved itself and the grade 4 has also resolved, but there was a small portion of her brain that was affected by it. They're not sure what effect that will have just yet, if any. With babies' brains being so small and not yet developed, their brains can work around any obstacles. They're going to do an MRI before she comes home that will tell them where exactly it is and what that part of the brain is used for. They have said; however, that she hasn't shown any signs of any problems at all yet, which is a very good sign. So, we're still praying that there are no effects from the bleed, but we are very optimistic that she won't have any trouble at all.
