Still praying for the best, full recovery! Love the pictures--very beautiful babies!

BBC recently wrote an article on the benefits of music for babies. When I read about it I thought about you. Hope you'll find this as interesting as I did.

When I was pregnant with my youngest daughter we always played classical music for her. I would put the head phones on my belly and she would just kick and kick while it played... depending on which kind I was playing. Sometimes I think it put her to sleep..the more mellow stuff. She is extremely bright and articulate and a fast learner. When she was a baby she did everything much earlier than most.

They're more and more beautiful every time I see them Rita. But I can't believe it's been nearly 4 weeks already!

I dont think I have updated you all on the latest. It seems one of the babies (not Harry or Rosie) in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) has a case of the flu.

So, when we visit, we have to scrub for over 2 minutes - and put a yellow gown on (as you can see in my latest pictures). The chair we sit in has to be covered, too. Since we have two babies, if we are holding Harry and want to switch to Rosie, we have to scrub again for 2 minutes, put a fresh yellow gown on and change the gown cover on the chair we are sitting in. I certainly understand why they are being cautious, but it is a pain - and those gowns are hot!

When Jim asked what was going on - they were pretty evasive and just said the flu - and that all the parents would get a letter in the mail explaining everything- and thats all the nurses could say.

I dont know which baby is sick, but it certainly has many of us worried. Premature babies lungs arent fully developed and an illness like the flu could be fatal. I have been praying very hard for the sick little baby and it's parents. Please add this little one to your prayer list.

Oh my gosh I bet you are all so scared. Poor Jess moms worry enough as it is. I will be praying for Rosie and Harry as well as the sick baby.

More prayers for the babies ... and Jess and Jim ... and Rita and Alan too!

The flu scare has been lifted as of this morning!!!

Harry and Rosie are going to get some very special mystery guests this evening. Ill share who they are later....

WEll??? I am not seeing any words!!!! HELLO!!! COME OUT COME OUT WHERE EVER YOU ARE MYSTERY GUESTS!!!

Well, here are the photos I got. It is hard to describe how tiny and precious a baby is. There really is no replacement for visiting in person.

ROSIE

HARRY

So not fair!!!! I love the pictures tho. They are so tiny. Harry is very handsome and Rosie is beautiful!!!!!

What precious pictures! Rita, your grandbabies are absolutely beautiful!

Rosie looks like she is saying -"HI now get away from me" and Harry looks scared of you Kaz lol

I bet they loved their mystery guests!

OMG, those pictures brought tears to my eyes, especially the hand picture. Still praying for you and your entire family Rita!

Having Eric and Kazko as visitors excited Harry so much he pooped his pants!!

Love the pictures, Terry! Especially the close up of the tiny hand! Im so happy the two of you were able to see them. Sharing them with you was/is very special to me.

You are so right, Terry. There is no picture that can describe how tiny and precious they are!

Awww

I have that general effect on people. Rita was even walking kinda funny after we met... I would even go as far as to say that I think I saw her scooting on the carpet when I wasnt looking.

awe what lovely pictures!!!! Terry and Eric sure are lucky. :)

I'm STILL walkin' kinda funny after your visit!!

Raven & Terry - you two are so silly!!!

It was kind of funny the way Eric, Terry and I first saw each other!! That's for a different thread!!

So cute! I love babies.

Awww Rita, I think the babies are adorable and they seem to be changing and growing every day.

It does look like they could use a manicure though.....LOL

Terry/Eric - what a blessing to be able to see these little miracles in person. Thanks for sharing the great photos!

Raven -- I'm pretty sure that in light of your "wobbling" posts it would be hard to pin your walking funny on Eric & Terry.

I'm still not convinced that it was Harry that farted.

Thanks for sharing the pics. They are just adorable. I love the hand pic. I hope Rosie doesn't get jealous of Harry's hair.
