Well I received a call from the doctor today and he said that Jeremiah had another episode early this morning that required him to be stimulated and that it wasn't around his feedings and so he has to stay in the NICU another 3 days! As I hung up from the doctor, of course, I just cried...I know, I NEVER cry! It just broke my heart to think of them being apart from each other and that Jeremiah has to stay up there alone - I know that he won't remember, but it still breaks my heart! So, Michael will be home tomorrow and they think it should be Friday or Saturday when Jeremiah comes home. Tonight we are going to stay at the hospital and room in with Michael. The NICU provides a room right next to the NICU doors, free of charge for parents to stay in the night before their baby comes home to be able to get "practice" with access to a nurse right there. They will come in to give you their milk and if you need anything you can go get them in the next room. So, we will stay in their with Michael and then bring him home tomorrow sometime!
They both got circumcised today :( When I got there they just got back and they were real fussy for the nurses and then I held them and they were both calm the rest of the time - they just needed their momma! :) Hopefully we can spend some time with Jeremiah tonight before we have to leave him tomorrow :(

Molly, I know that is so hard for you, but we are glad that Jeremiah should be home by this weekend! We hope you have a great night rooming in with Michael tonight-I think that is great that they do that, so you can get some help if you need it! And I hope tomorrow goes well for you with him at home. So glad to hear your mom is coming in tomorrow as well!!! Yay! Please let me know if you need anything, and also what time you would like my services on Thursday. :) Take care, and we are still praying for all members of the Spivey family! :)
