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

ReplyDeleteDear Brock,
ReplyDeleteYou have three little brothers coming home soon that are certainly lucky to have you for a big brother!!! You will be able to teach them ALL the things that BIG boys need to know!. For the first little bit, they may have to learn more from mommy and daddy and won't be as much fun to play with because they are so little, but soon, they'll start watching you play and will think that what you do is SO funny and will smile and laugh at you all the time! You will be a wonderful big brother, Brock!!! Just give them a LITTLE bit of time to grow, and they will be your best little buddies!
Love you,
Linda
