It was a good day today in the hospital. Willow had her first bath, which was a shared experience with her brother. It was slightly stressful - more for us than the babies - due to the fact that it was the first time both of them had been off their monitors completely. They both seemed to enjoy it though, and Willow was particularly alert for quite a while. Now that she is not using up all of her energy on breathing, she's starting to wake up a bit more.
Also, we had another first - we saw Stanley with no tubes in his face. He's breathing completely natural air for a lot of the time, just like a proper normal baby. We're feeling like we're getting closer to the nursery section now; hopefully we should at least be in there for Christmas dinner. It's not quite as noisy in that room, wth less babies - so should be slightly more pleasant.
Our bathroom is coming along nicely. The avocado suite is where it belongs - in the driveway behind the gate, under a pile of rubble. We are being very well looked after at the senior Senior household, where there are far too many Swiss biscuits to even contemplate starting a healthy eating regime until after Christmas.
