Update!

All the boys are doing really well!  We are just waiting on the caffeine levels to go down and then the countdown begins.  We have been talking to the nurses and as soon as Brayson and Cooper's caffeine levels go down below 5 the clock begins.  They have to go one week without a heart rate drop then its off to Ocean Springs.  All of the boys have been on regular air for a week now.  Cooper was the last to get off his air cannula last Saturday.  Emerson is the only one that is really really close to going home!  Emerson was not on any caffeine and has not had a heart rate drop since last Monday, June 27th.  Emerson also had a test last night and he passed.  That test was the car seat test.  The car seat test is where they buckle them into their car seats and they have to go for one hour without any heart rate drops.  All Emerson has to have done is his vaccinations and that other surgery that most males do not like to talk about.  We are hoping that he will be home on Monday but keep your fingers crossed. 

Jill and I are all ready to go to Ocean Springs.  We went home yesterday for a little while.  Actually for most of the day because I had to have a little oral surgery.  After my surgery and spending most of the day at home we went to grab some dinner with friends in Ocean Springs.  Jill and I wanted me to have the surgery before the babies got home so Jill would not have to four babies at home.  I am doing okay still hurts a little but not enough to keep me out of the NICU.  Plus the doctor gave me plenty of drugs as well. 

Please keep praying for our little boys to get better so they can go home and see their other brother "Logan".

Thanks
Jill and Amon
