The TCU is a step down from NICU in that the treatment and care are not as intense. In TCU, Jermaine and I get to take care of the babies ourselves while they gain weight. The nurses only come in to check on us around feeding times to make sure all is well. They also pop in periodically throughout the day to support our new parenting experience. The really great thing about TCU is that we can stay here with the babies. We are keeping our room at the Ronald McDonald house though because the cot bed here is quite small.
Marshall took a bottle with 40 mL and guzzled it down. Roslind's biggest bottle today was 45 mL. They don't play when it comes to eating. They are one week today!!!
We're so glad to be able to be by their bedsides throughout the day and are even more excited to be able to care for them ourselves.
Auntie Tamara is coming to visit the twins tonight. They're so excited!!!
Some pics from today.

How cute is that tiny face in that large hand?
We almost caught his smile on film.
Roslind's "socks" They're more like leggings, huh?
This hat is messing up my fade.
Cute as a whistle!!!
Mommy and Ros-again.
Hi everybody!!! My mommy can't believe I'm hers.
That's it for today. Daddy is becoming quite the photographer.
Prayer requests:
Grow, grow, grow!

Congratulations Roslind and Marshall on your big move to the TCU. Keep eating and growing you two - it'll make your mommy and daddy proud. And congratulations April and Jermaine on the birth of your two beautiful babies. We will keep all four of you in our prayers.
I love seeing the pictures. Roslind's hair looks long enough for barrettes. (smile) Lots of them! :) I will have tons of barrettes waiting for her! :)
HI April,
Sooooooo cute.
So glad to hear that your little angels are progressing.

They're getting even more cuter. I'm soooo happy for you all. It's good to hear that the babies were moved out of NICU, next they'll be moving home. With all the love and prayers everyone has for you and your precious ones they'll grow like clifford the big red dog (hopefully you know the part). For now I wish you all the best and will continue to pray for the babies.
