Glow Worms

At the boys 5 day doctors visit the doc thought that we should have their bilirubin levels checked. Mom and I took the boys over to the hospital lab for more feet pricks. The doc was right and their levels were a bit elevated. So we had some 'bili-blankets' delivered to the house. We were to keep the boys in the blankets as much as possible.

The boys strapped in
Elliott only had to be a glow worm for 24 hours :)
Jonas had to be on it for 2 days. They think his numbers were higher because of the huge bruise on his head from birth.
I'm SO happy that they weren't stuck to the light boxes for very long. It was hard not to be able to snuggle them.

your parents were at my house when in 'in home' people brought a belli bed for Truman. I laid on the floor and CRYED. I was so sad he had to be in it (for the entire weekend). Dang pregnancy emotions.
