Whew, today was quite the day! We could not stop contracting, again...and they upped her tribudline again, and it still did not work, so they put her on some other meds, which more or less worked, but not entirely, but good enough for now. Good news is that they do not think we have dilated any more and the babies look great!! Tomorrow will be 28 weeks, which is a good number, but now that we have arrived here, everyone keeps talking about 30 weeks, while this is understandable, it gets a little tiresome, its like, man, isnt this goal good enough? But the Lord is good and the babies look great, so there is no complaining here, well not much.
The toughest thing right now is dealing with not having our son around us as much anymore...every second I get with him feels very cats and the cradle. I miss him, as does monica and we worry so much about him knowing his mommy and daddy love him. We just want him closer and more accessible. For those of you who do not know, our hospital is about 30 minutes away from his daycare, and 45 minutes from where we have been living. Even then when I bring him by, he can only handle so much being in this little room. Please pray that we would be able to continue to bond with him as he grows and we go through this time apart. Talk to you all soon!

Wow! I can't believe the babies are on their way! I'll be praying for the 5 of you!
Only 28 weeks, huh? How big are they estimating that the babies weigh? Over 2 pounds yet?
Oh, thinking about the long weeks ahead and the NICU becoming your second home just makes me sigh. I know that it is not new to you, but it sounds like they'll be in the hospital longer than Cade (I can't remember how early he was.) Winston was only in the NICU for 2 weeks, which was very manageable.
Has the bleeding stopped? Is there a possiblity of Monica's labor halting and her carrying for several more weeks?
I'll anticipate your updates and hopefully some pictures of the little ones when they arrive, too.
Love,
Bethany
