More Szabbie Baby Photos

My dad and I went out to North Bay tonight to see Carol and her family tonight. Here are a select few of the 50 shots my camera took. It was kinda like the paparazzi at times, with the three of us proud as punch while we took shots of the momentous occasion of Anya meeting the twins for the first time, Grampa meeting them for the first time, and the first time the Szabicots were all together.

The dry air in the hospital aggrivated the tail end of the cold I'm mostly over, so I wore a mask so no germs would get on little Dhara. Sadly Elora was not allowed out of the nursery because she's too weak to nurse or even take a bottle yet. She's got a feeding tube, and to be on the safe side, Carol tries to breastfeed her in the nursery. Dhara is strong enough to take a bottle, and as soon as her milk comes in, Carol will be able to stop supplementing them with formula.

Carol's "oh my god it's TWINS" face. She said she was trying to look more awake. You're beautiful, Carol.

BJ helping Anya wash her hands before visiting with her sisters for the first time. Isn't that little gown so cute? Oh and BJ and Carol both have coughs as well, which is why they wore masks too. I wasn't a parent, sister, or grandparent to the babies, so I wasn't allowed into the nursery. That's why there's wirey glass in the extreme foreground of these pictures. The twins are in that basinet to BJ's left.

The Five Szabbies where you can see them all, and no nurse in the shot!

Hopefully they will be allowed to come home Friday, but they'll have to wait until Elora is strong enough to suckle either a bottle or breast. Wish her strength everyone!
