Welcome to Tyler and Parker Thompson's Blog

Tyler and Parker Thompson arrived on June 23, 2008 at only 26 weeks and 4 days old, weighing 1 pound 6 ounces (Parker) and 1 pound 10 ounces (Tyler). Parker spent 129 days (home 10/30/08) in the NICU, while brother Tyler spent 143 (home 11/13/08). We are thrilled to have our family complete with both boys home!

This blog was created by John (the daddy) to inform family and friends (and now new acquaintances) of the twins progression. Below is the blog archive dating back to the week Heather (the mommy) was admitted to the hospital. We try to post weekly updates, but on occasion the week gets the best of us.

Report Card

Sunday June 22 4:10 pm

So we had the ultrasound to find out why Parker wasn't moving much, and found the opposite. Parker scored an 8/8 on his report card, while it was Tyler who was being lazy and not moving much ( very unusual as he is always the active one:)). His report card was only 6/8. But not to worry, the doc said everything looked great and she'll do it again tomorrow. On a positive note: I hadn't mentioned how happy we were with UCD!!! Heather had some trepidation about the facitlity in general, but no is sold on how great it is. Our room is private and is huge. The staff has been outstanding! Very nice and cooperative as well as extremely knowlegeable. We really do feel like this is the best place for us.
