In the beginning Stella really didn't like being put on her tummy but she has grown more tolerant over time. This is great news because developmentally it is really important for her to have 'tummy time'. Trey is a very strong little boy and Stella has started to show her strength as well when she is on the floor or our chests. Today she rolled from her tummy to her back three times!
Keeping Trey comfortable continues to be a challenge but it seems as though the doctors and nurses are very close to finding a combination of medicines which keep him calm and happy. Overall he is doing well and he gained nearly an ounce yesterday which is awesome news!
Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa Goolden for visiting over the weekend. They stayed with Stella on Saturday night so we could visit Trey and have an hour to ourselves. We went to Ri Ra's Irish Pub on Church Street and had a meal by ourselves for the first time since Stella was discharged. We talked about the babies the entire time which made us recognize our lives will never be the same again which we are so happy and excited about. We finished off their visit with breakfast at IHOP, which has become a Sunday morning tradition.

I'm glad you both were able to get out and have some adult time! That's awesome that Stella is starting to roll...she is such a cute baby! And, keep heading in the right direction Trey...he is strong and a fighter like his daddy! My thoughts are always with you. Love, Jess
