Monday night

Allan and Griffith got to touch each other for the first time ever tonight. Which sounds more momentous than it turned out to be. Neither one of them seemed to notice even. It was really kind of a non-event. Not like the first right hook or jab or "he started it!" At any rate we are doing what we can to re-introduce the boys to each other.
Allan was doing a little better with his breathing tonight. He weighed in at 6 pounds and 8 ounces. He is quite an armful these days.
Griffith has been on room air for about 12 hours so far today - no cannula, no additional oxygen and he is doing fine with that. We'll see how long he can go like that. His belly still isn't moving the way it is supposed to though and so he is only getting very little milk at each feeding. What with one thing and another, he has stalled out on the weight gain -- he is 4 pounds 12 ounces. Since he is about an inch and a half longer than his brother he seems just that much scrawnier.
Jay's mom and dad arrive tomorrow for their first visit with the boys. We have heard that they have brought an entire suitcase of goodies from home with them. Check back tomorrow night and I am sure that we will have a host of new photos posted.
