HOME!!

We're finally home!It took us 6 days to get both our boys home. When the boys were born they spent 6 hours in the transitional nursery since they were a few days under 37 weeks. The docs wanted to make sure that they were both stable before releasing them to us. After 6 hours they let us have Raine but they sent Mika to the Special Nursery. He had to spend 6 days in their because his blood sugar was low. This is a picture of Mika with a little I.V. in his wee little hand. Taya was at the hospital for 4 days, due to the c-section, so the last 2 days Mika was at the hospital while Raine was at home with us. We went back and forth to the hospital several times both days that Mika was at the hospital so we were exhausted and just did not have time to call anyone or to let anyone know what was going on. Sorry to anyone who was waiting to hear from us. Thanks to all those who left us message. Special thanks to Tom and Sheila for helping us make it through this. If it were not for them I am not sure how this would have all worked out as well as it did.

Nana and Grandpa's First time with the boys

I love these pictures. Nana and Grandpa with the twins for the first time. What an amazing experience as a parent to see others love your children so very much.

First time shots with Momma and Papa

These are the first shots of Momma and Papa Dulcich with their boys. Elation is the best way to describe the feeling.

Raine and Mika spent their first 6 hours in the transitional nursery for breathing issues. After 5 hours Raine was released to us with a clean bill of health. Mika had to go to the special nursery and has been there since. Mika was having low blood sugar levels so they wanted to put him on monitor and Intravenous fluids and keep track of him. His glucose levels are now outstanding and they are weaning him off of the IV as I type this. As it stands we've been having to go back and forth between our room and the special nursery for the last 3 days. I'm sorry if there are phone calls we are not returning or have not returned. We will be going home Tuesday morning and if we do not return your call before we leave we will shortly after we get home.

Thanks for all the love and support,

Mama and Papa Dulcich
