Tayla and Ben are up in weight Tayla is 5lbs and Ben is 4lbs 5oz.  Tayla and Ben both took a full feeding by mouth today! Tayla took over half of the next two feedings by mouth.  We are syringe feeding and we did use a bottle with Tayla today.  They are still getting my milk.  We need to be home and it looks like the only way that will happen is if they get rid of the feeding tubes.  The whole family was hoping that we would at least be able to spend Christmas together at the hospital but with the blizzard of the decade looming it is not looking very promising.  What are the odds I would go into premature labor out of the blue in a snowstorm and then we would have the blizzrard of the decade for Christmas.  Really, I need to write a book our life never ceases to amaze me.
