Happy 4 Week Birthday Baby Girls!

Today the girls are 4 weeks old and they are continuing to do great! They are all out of their individual incubators and sleeping in an open crib together. It's so awesome to see them all together again! Of course, once they come home, we are not supposed to put them in the same crib together because it increases the risk of SIDS, but they are allowed to be that way in the hospital because they are on 24 hour monitoring.
Each girl has their own crib, so it's not an issue- but they sure look cute in the same crib!
Taylor and Leigha have been increased to the 24 calorie formula and Kaitlyn is on the 20 calorie formula. They are all still on oxygen, but their amounts are low. Oxygen is very common for babies here due to the altitude. They are also going to start bottle feeding them this coming week which is the last thing that they have to learn before they can come home! We are very proud of our little girls and how well they are doing! They are certainly little fighters!

Here are all the girls together once again!
