Moving Up!

Mommy and Daddy are very proud of our little boys. They have both moved up into the next room (middle room). There is one more room before getting to go home. The NICU had more babies come in and they moved the stable babies and guess what.......the Diesel boys got to move! They are strong little fighters and have done a great job. They now are taking 30 ml of breast milk through the feeding tube every three hours. Mommy is getting nervous about keeping up with these hungry boys. Keaton and Kendall are growing up so fast.....I want them to slow down already. I sat and held Keaton for a really long time yesterday. He had his eyes open the whole time just looking around. They are both such handsome little guys. Kendall is doing a great job as well. He had his eyes open yesterday for a while as well. I try to take turns holding them from day to day. I know we don't get that chance to hold them every single day, but the days we get we take it all in. They are just too precious. There is no better feeling then holding your baby and knowing everthing is going to be ok. When daddy and I hold them we just get this calm feeling and many emotions running through.....it is just amazing what God can do. We are so blessed to have two precious miracle babies.

Andrew and I's world revolves around Keaton and Kendall now. We are so in love with our boys. Daddy is very protective of them already and can't wait to get all of us home under one roof. I am coming home Friday evening and will be back on Saturday. This will be my second time coming home in ten weeks. It was very hard to leave them the last time and I am sure it won't be any better this time. I feel guilty when I leave them, but I know that they need there rest. I know they are in great hands.....we can call the NICU at any point in time to check on them so this does help a little. I feel that we have a million things to do before the boys come home, but I never had that chance to finish up these things before the boys arrived. We will see if it all gets done :)
Here are some pictures from the other day!

  1. Laurna & Andrew...

    I am so happy for you both! You all have been in my prayers! I am so happy that the delivery and your family are doing great! Your boys will continue to get stronger everyday because I have no doubt that your love is doing more for them than anything else on this planet!

    I can't wait to see them and had been keeping up what I could from Danielle and from what mom told me. If 8,000 miles weren't in the way I would have been up to visit you sooner! But I'll be back in time for Christmas. Ryne and I can't wait to meet your boys and I can't wait to give you a huge hug Laurna, you are such a strong woman, and I know you both are just amazing parents already!

    I love you guys and can't wait to see the Diesel family in December! take care and you will continue to be in my prayers!

    all my love!
    -Kathy
