Today is the Christmas Party! We are very excited to celebrate Christmas with Austin tonight! His big brother Drew, myself and my husband will be attending. A family Christmas! They are serving dinner and dessert, crafts for the siblings, massages for the parents, little presents for the preemies, Santa visits babies and siblings, and Bengals Michael Johnson is coming to visit tonight as well! How fun! I have The Christmas Story book to read to Austin (true story of Christmas). Two of the nurses have made outfits for the babies. Red and White Tu'Tu's for the girls, and vest w/ bow ties for the boys. I cannot wait to see if little Austin (Mr. Feisty) behaves and allows them to put on his vest..... I need a lot of pictures of that! HAHA. Its going to be so very fun! Drew picked out a present for his baby brother- a miniature (key chain) pillow pet identical to one he has. Austin will get to open that gift tonight. Although Drew does not get to see his brother tonight, he is still very excited for this NICU experience as a family! I will be posting a lot of pictures from this event!
Austin is really starting to up his weight! He is 1338g=2lbs 15oz.....ONLY 23g away from 3 pounds!!!!! YAY!!!! He is still doing absolutely WONDERFUL!!! Praise God! This is going to be a GREAT Christmas!
Austin Allen Kimmey born 11/3/11 at 5:18a.m. He was born at 26 wks 2 days gestational, weighing in at 828 grams--approx. 1 lb 13oz. With this blog you will be able to check up on the progress Austin is making while in the NICU. He has quite a long stay ahead of him, but is such a strong little guy with so much life in him all ready! With the strength and power of GOD, Austin is a miracle, just working on getting home!
