Hiya all,
Babies are still in Lion's Gate, and doing well. Dillon is all off probes and tubes. We can actually walk around with him like a real baby! Madeleine is still on a feeding tube and O2 sensors, but is off her heartrate monitors.
Dillon is actually ready to come home already. They are talking about us taking him home this weekend. Madeleine is likely going to be a few more weeks. She is still learning to breastfeed, but its a slow go. She is very distracted, wide eyed and awake, looking around the room.
Examples below. Pics of Madeleine not breastfeeding.
And.. here is Dillon in one of his rare moments awake without a breast in his mouth, having a big yawn.
The twins are both sleeping in the same crib now, and are very comfortable together, except when Madeleine hits Dillon in the head.

Well Hello Ms. Madeleine!
What a pretty little girl you are!! You will be home with Mommy, Daddy & Dillon before you know it!!
I'll bet she is going to miss not having big brother Dillon by her side for the next few weeks!
And what wondeful news for you & Dillon!!
And so it begins!! LOL
What an amazing job you guys have done, I'll bet reality won't set in until you actually have Dillon under your roof and in his own little room!!
What a fabulous Christmas celebration!!
Hope all is well with all of you! Are you running your butts off or has things calmed down somewhat?
We look forward to seeing you all over the holidays!!

Hi Dave & Abby,
What a great x-mas gift, to have your babies back in Vancouver, and coming home so soon! It was so wonderful to see (and feel!) over the weekend how much they've grown since I saw them out in Edmonton. Boy, can that Dillon sure push out his bms now, too! (Just like his Daddy, right Abby?!!) And is Madelaine ever alert, with her newly tuned up eyes. Do you get the feeling she's already planning her first corporate takeover??
Congrats you two on your long, courageous journey, and your passionate fight for your babes - what an inspiring story for us all in 2008!
See you tomorrow, and Merry Christmas!
With all our love,
Heather & Victor
