Zad Saves the World; Zeke Gets the Girl

So the boys reached 7 weeks old yesterday, and there have been some upgrades.

Zad, the go getter, adventurous, willing to try new things, and prefers not to be told no... In other words, a strong willed child :)  He is willing brave new worlds and slay the dragon.  Zad is at 5 pounds 2 ounces, and is down to 1 liter of pressure of air, and up to 48 ml of milk per feeding (plus nursing).

Zeke, mild mannered, quick to smile, can't be rushed, and loves to snuggle.  He is willing to save the damsel in distress, and charm away the ones not in distress.  Zeke is at 4 pounds 10.5 ounces, is currently off all breathing apparatuses (we are praying it stays this way) and is up to 42 ml of milk per feeding (and decided he wanted to start nursing as well)






Mommy & Daddy love their little super heroes, and can't wait to bring them to their secret lair to continue their super hero training.

HOLY UPGRADES BATMAN

So The Boys are 5 1/2 weeks old.  let's do an update.

Zad is at 4 pounds and 1 ounce and at 15.55 inches.  He is currently on High-Flow air, so that means no more CPAP!!!  Zad is also regulating his own temp, so he is doing great.

Zeke is at 3 pounds 11 ounces and is at 15.5 inches.  He is regulating his own temp, and is charming the nurses.  Zeke is also doing great.

The Super ZZ Bros. room will have many names... The Fortress of Solitude, Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, The Batcave, Avengers Mansion, The Watchtower, etc.  Until then, here is there Cribs that they upgraded to being able to regulate their temp.
