New Photos and a Word about Eyeballs

It's been a mostly uneventful week since the last post. I finally managed to upload some photos (3 new albums) and video of Isaak and his binky. Click on Ollie and go take a look-see.

Both munchkins had their eyeballs probed today and things appear to be progressing. The hemorhage in Isaak's left eye is finally clearing up (after almost two months!) and while they both have some RoP present, it appears that progress is occurring. Penny really isn't far away from being "normal" at all.

The only other thing we have medically to report is that Isaak's bloodwork is looking pretty stable. He's still a little anemic and his bilirubin is still elevated but hasn't gone up anymore.

Other than that, sleep is the only thing we are lacking. Having a baby can be a challenge. Having TWO babies is a bigger one. One of those babies having medical issues...well, just makes life all that much more exciting.

  3. Thanks for the update and the pictures! Continuing to pray for you all. By the way, there is still a glitch in the posting system. The first time you try it locks down and you have to retry!? Thought you might want to know. Love you all.

  4. Wow....how wonderful it was to see you four over the weekend!! Penny and Isaak have grown not only in size but their personalities and social skills have improved greatly. Hearing Isaak "talking" so much was such a blessing!! He's quite the little man. Penny is also a great joy to be around. The way they both look at you so intently when you talk to them now is so cute. All we can say is, Neil and Bekka, thanks for giving us the best gifts we could ever have for Grandparents' Day, Oliver,Penny and Isaak. We love you all and started missing you as soon as we backed out of your driveway. Take care and know that we're always here for you guys. We love you.....Nana and Papaw

  5. Not sure what is going on with the posting system. That is all Google's fault ;)

    I think that it might not do that if you register though. And Mom, thanks for the lovely comment. We miss you guys too. Thanks for letting us get out of the house (together) this weekend. It was wonderful.
