a new plug
Grady has a new soother - kind of looks like a drain plug! Samara and Keithan used the NUK style of soother and Rhett wouldn't have anything to do with soothers! I bought this one because it was most like the one he was given at the NICU.
beautiful winter day

just some more photos
For those of you who are checking for photo updates .... here are a few. I it is very hard to find time to take pictures. And, when I want to take a photo there is at least one child who isn't in cooperation mode. Not much new here. Grady weighed 6 lbs 14 oz on Thursday. I wonder what he would have weighed if he had been born at full term. His due date was Wednesday Feb 13th - glad it was over before that!!!
