I am praying the shots are well tolerated by both Drake and Kennedy. Praying you had a good Saturday and for the babies' Grandfather to recover fully as well. Your loyal prayer partner in Georgia (and I have at least six who are praying with me for you on a daily basis). Hope you feel the support of the many prayers and hope you see the results in your babies' progress.Please God do keep your hand of protection and blessing on these two tiny darlings, amen. <><artmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-40802052328540106192012-08-25T12:30:14.169-05:002012-08-25T12:30:14.169-05:00Uh oh mom....

Another mileston...Another day closer to going home! Another milestone--shots! Aye! They hurt us more than the babies I think! No matter how many shots my kids get...it never gets easier! But we gotta protect them :-)<br /><br />I am truly glad to hear your kiddos are doing so well! It is so exciting that you will soon get to see their perfect faces out from under cpap. They are both miraculous gifts from God!<br /><br />Prayers continue!

I love all their sweet pictures. ...Such great news! I love all their sweet pictures. Shots are not fun - bless their hearts. I remember Syd had this horrible ear infection that would not go away - before they put tubes in they had to clear the infections. They gave her 5 shots - one each day of this thick medicine. I had to have someone else go in with her because I couldn't stand to see her in pain. <br /><br />There will be lots of firsts - some with smiles and some with tears. Looking at your babies brings back memories of my babies! I can't believe Ali is 16 and driving. It goes by so quickly...<br /><br />Love and hugs from Tyler!<br /><br />Yvonne and SydneyY and Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-84017088534755538492012-08-24T23:41:44.888-05:002012-08-24T23:41:44.888-05:00So awesome how wonderful they are doing.

So if they haven't told you already, once they come home, for the first year through flu season they will both receive Synagis shots every month. It protects preemies lungs against RSV and other airborn viruses like pneumonia. The shots are not fun to get because of the shot size but they are crutial for micropreemies. These are things that once they are released your pedi will explain to you. If you haven't set up a pedi, start looking now, interview them and find one that has a history of working with preemies. You are both such wonderful parents and going through this only makes you stronger God bless ypur family! The most prescious thing is when your baby responds to you and recognizes when you are around. So glad you are both experiencing that! All the best! Lots of love from Houston.Robert and Janna Pokludahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18344550245749085874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-80075170111673093252012-08-24T23:36:37.164-05:002012-08-24T23:36:37.164-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Robert and Janna Pokludahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18344550245749085874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-17771351717822764632012-08-24T23:34:28.253-05:002012-08-24T23:34:28.253-05:00Great to hear they are getting their shots, being ...Great to hear they are getting their shots, being big babies now :) Just a few more weeks and they will be out in the real world, away from the NICU, experiencing life :)<br /><br />It is cute to see Kennedy calmed by her daddy, can see her being such a daddy's girl and I doubt he will complain a bit about that :) <br /><br />Drake and Kennedy have come so far, and can't wait to see them on cannula and then get off it eventually :)<br /><br />Have a great weekend Gilstrap family! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03599062647237076974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-23505830315210757172012-08-24T23:34:14.620-05:002012-08-24T23:34:14.620-05:00Wow, it's hard to even imagine they're rea...Wow, it's hard to even imagine they're ready for shots just like other 2 mo old babies!! They are just growing & growing! That last picture of Drake actually looks like he's smiling! They are both as beautiful as can be! I am so happy of y'all getting to bring them home in the near future. I'm sure it's still all just an amazing dream with everything you all have been through, and so quickly! I saw my dad, grandma & grandpa tonight & had printed every picture posted of the babies for them to go through since gma doesn't do computers. No one can believe how much they've changed since they were born. I was going to send you copies for their baby books or if/when you have time to scrap them but gma was packing them up to take them home to bragg about them! Lol love you all!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073739541417722670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726443353266284420.post-20275706098559375402012-08-24T23:17:34.660-05:002012-08-24T23:17:34.660-05:00It is amazing that shots can be a happy milestone....It is amazing that shots can be a happy milestone.
