Happy but Sad

Tuesday was a happy but sad day.  After over a month Adam and Eve finally got to go home.  Although they are missed, I am so thankful they progressed enough to be able to go home where they belong.
 Eve weighed 5.22 kg and Adam weighed 5.35kg; just over 50% of their weight when they came to the hospital a little over a month ago.  Although most of us wouldn't be happy with a 50% weight gain in a month, this is great news for these two.  Please continue to pray for them and their family.  They were sent home with some formula and oatmeal.  They will have occasional clinic visits at the hospital and then more frequent checks by those nurses and doctors visiting the rural clinic close to where they live.  

 Eve has become quite determined to get anything here brother has.  Just like siblings:) It is so exciting to see them so alert and interacting with their environment.  They both have smiles that will melt any heart.
Although Ben and Olivia didn't get to spend much time with these precious ones, there hearts were quickly stolen, just like the rest of us.
