She's doing great and I think that's what is making it so frustrating. We just want her home. I'm tired of seeing her being poked and prodded and I'm sure she's tired of it too. She's been such a brave little girl through all of this and I think she's going to be one tough kid.
Christmas was fine. The hospital opened up their visitor's policy and allowed all visitors for Xmas Eve and Xmas Day. My family was able to visit Kendall on Thursday and then Todd's family came up on Friday. It was a very nice gesture by the hospital and I'm sure the families of all the patients appreciated it as much as we did.
We've been spending every night with Kendall, coming home for the afternoon and then going back to the hospital around 4-5:00 pm every day. We've made the best of the situation and the size of the room and the nursing staff has certainly made it more bearable.
I don't have any cute Christmas pictures to post because Kendall couldn't wear her outfit due to the IV in her arm but I will take some when she comes home and we'll pretend like it's Christmas morning.
In the meantime, here's few photos from last week. The twins are 12 weeks old today (4 weeks gestationally). I think Christopher is slightly ahead of Kendall developmentally because he's definitely smiling more in response to stimuli. They are both starting to coo fairly regularly. We'll continue to watch Kendall to make sure she doesn't have any issues from the meningitis. They were both weighed a few days ago and they are growing like crazy! Christopher is just under 11 lbs and Ms. Kendall was 10.3 lbs. They've come such a long way from their birth weights.

They're absolutely adorable, all cheeks and sweetness! You've endured quite a lot these past few months. I wish you and your family a happy, healthy, quiet 2010!
YAY for coming home! They are precious!
