Well it has been very busy around the Hughes household the past week. All the boys are now over 5lbs. Carter came home on Friday, June 5th at 5 lbs 3 oz. He has transitioned really well with sticking to the same schedule he was on in the hospital. Eating every three hours and taking the maximum amount. He is the champion eater of the group, but his brothers are not far behind. So we survived the weekend with one baby home and trips to the hospital to visit the other two, Austin and Blake. Carter had his first pediatrician appointment yesterday and weighed in at 5 lbs 10 oz and 18 1/4 inches long. Wow this boy is growing!!!!
Austin and Blake both passed their car seat test yesterday and were circumcised, poor boys! These are all good signs they will be coming home in the next couple of days. Once they are bottle feeding every feeding that is their last milestone prior to being discharged. According to our visit today that should be happening today or tomorrow. Keep the boys in your prayers for their continued good health.
Madyson has also enjoyed her little brother Carter being home. She is a big help to us with getting things and holding Carter. We are so lucky to have such an awesome little girl to help her family. Today was a big day for her because she had a big basketball game at school with the Kinders and the 6th graders in basketball. This is a tradition that happens at the end of each school year. It was nice that James and I were both able to attend the game today.
Thanks to all of our family and friends for all your help. Our family is very blessed and can't thank you enough!!!
