Fun Times!

So I have learned that if you want your girls to come home from the hospital then just send Gma Stryker back to NY. Gma & Gpa Stryker left this morning for NY and Gma was coming back in a few weeks once the girls left the hospital. When I went to the hospital this morning Kira was sitting in her car seat taking her test. She passed with flying colors. Then it was Alana's turn who also passed without a problem. Then when the nurse came in she said did you notice that their feeding tubes are out? I said what - no way!!! Kira decided last night she was done with it and pulled it out herself. The nurses decided she was eating well enough to leave it out. Alana must have heard the conversation as she chowed down 60 ml from the bottle (she normally eats around 34 ml) and they had to cut her off!! Because of that they decided Alana did not need her tube anymore either. Go Alana - Jim and I were not dealing well with the fact that we would be bringing home Kira and leaving Alana longer. Now it is looking like they will come home together. They did the hearing test as well today and Kira passed on the first try. Alana they had to test several times as she kept moving. In the end she passed but she made them work for it. They will get their Hep B shots tomorrow and then providing they continue to do as well as they have been doing they should be home by the weekend. I am so excited and nervous about taking care of two SMALL kids. Let the fun times begin.
