WE DID IT!!! WE'RE BIG BOYS NOW!

Yesterday it happened! The doctor called mom at work to brief her and let her know that it was time. Time to try Ethan and Kian off CPAP! Yay!!! The plan was to put both boys on a nasal cannula- Ethan on room air and Kian on 25% O2 and see how they did. If they were good, they could stay on it. If they were bad, they'd have to go back on CPAP. Mom checked in all day- and all day they stayed on the nasal cannula. She was waiting for the "honeymoon" period to wear off but Dad called to check on the boys early this morning and they were still doing well.






Kian is on the left, Ethan is on the right. They don't look alike at all.

They're growing up before our eyes. We've reached our mini goal. Our next goal is to start eating from a bottle. The first step toward that goal is working with the physical therapist on our suck/swallow coordination. Should be interesting since neither know how to suck on a pacifier yet. We'll keep you updated!
