The boys are home!



All 3 Boys Are Home!!!!!!!


After five days of just having Evan and Cade at home, Lincoln got to join his brothers at home.  From the hospital, to taking pictures, to the doctor for their first check-up, it has been an eventfully day.  It is amazing how different having all three home feels.  Maybe it is just a feeling of our family being complete.  We look forward to this next phase in our blessed adventure.

Lincoln now weights 4lbs 9oz and is 18 1/2 in. long
Cade is 4lbs 8oz and is 18 1/2 in. long
Evan is 4lbs 14oz and is 18 in. long



Please continue to pray for these 3 blessings!
Pray that Cassie and I are able to juggle all of the tasks that need to be done to take care of Brock, Lincoln, Cade, Evan and ourselves.
We continue to amazed by all of those thinking, praying, helping and providing for us.  Every bit is appreciated!

Almost 3 Weeks Old

It has hard to believe that in a couple days Cade, Lincoln, and Evan will be three weeks old.  Much has changed since our last post.  All three boys are in open cribs and are over four pounds.  Their weights are as follows:  Cade 4 lbs 3 1/4 oz, Lincoln 4lbs 4 3/4 oz, and Evan 4 lbs 9 oz.  Yesterday, they all passed their hearing screening.  Today the doctor told us that we will likely be able to take Evan and Cade home on Saturday.  Both are taking bottles and no longer need their feeding tubes.  Lincoln is a few days behind and will hopefully begin taking a bottle on a regular basis very soon.  It is a little bitter sweet to be able to take two of the boys home but we are sad to leave Lincoln there.  Please pray that it will soon "click" with him and he will join us at home. 

We never cease to be amazed by the love, support, and help we have received from all of our friends and church family.  Thank you just doesn't seem to be adequate.  We are so grateful for each of you!  Please continue to join us in prayer for Cade, Lincoln, and Evan.  We pray they will continue to thrive and meet recommended milestones.  Also, pray for a smooth transition home. 

Love,
Brian, Cassie, Big Brother Brock, Cade, Evan, and Lincoln
