Mallory and Kelby: Slumber party aftermath

The girls were born on November 16th, 2007, 16 weeks early. Mallory Kate – 1 lb 8 oz, Evan Reese – 1 lb 1 oz, and Kelby Grace – 1 lb 5 oz. Upon their delivery, Mallory and Kelby were transferred to St. David’s South and were doing fairly well considering the circumstances. Our little Evan Reese was a fighter, but she had a lot of problems and she was with us for about 5 hours. We love you Evan and we miss you everyday, but we know we’ll see you again one day. Mallory and Kelby both went through a lot in their 105 day stay in the hospital, from heart surgeries, to brain bleeds, to infections. Many prayers were answered and we thank God everyday for everything He has done for them. Today they are perfectly healthy and growing bigger and stronger everyday. We started this blog to keep everybody updated on their progress. You can scroll down to the bottom of the page for a slideshow from the NICU days.

Slumber party aftermath

This is the first of many, we are certain. After putting the girls to bed at 8ish, going in twice to silence the giggle fest we finally headed to bed at 11. Jeremy checked on the girls and they were sleeping peacefully in their own beds. However Saturday morning when we went in to get them, they were snuggled up on Mallory's bed. They had already run off to play by the time I found the camera to take a picture. We have no idea when Kelby climbed in bed with Mallory. They have not slept together in the same bed in two years. I love the bond they have. Nothing is sweeter.
