Rooming In

This entry is being typed while mom and dad are "rooming in" with Jonathan and Anna inside the hospital. The NICU likes parents to stay for several hours and take care of the babies completely. The monitors are still hooked up, and the nurses are around if we really need them. The idea is for mom and dad to get more comfortable with caring for them before they come home. We are spending the night with the two, and the nurse will take care of Lydia for us tonight. Jonathan should eat again between 1 - 3 a.m., and Anna between 2 - 4 a.m. As we're normally up to at least 1 a.m. anyways lately, we will not even try to sleep until after Anna is fed again in the 2 -4 a.m. timeframe.
By the way, I put up more photos on the photos site. There are a bunch of the babies room now that it is finished and organized. So basically whenever the kids are finally ready, the room is already waiting for them.
Tomorrow we will travel up and back to/from Bradford/Manchester. We are bringing Grandma Johnson down to stay for a week. As she has no access to the internet, she has only seen some of the regular film photos that we've taken. Most of what is on the photos section is from our digital, but we keep taking regular film too. I get the photo CD so I can use them digitally too if I want.
Opps....battery on the laptop getting low, so time to sign off for now.
