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.

Parker's Turn
Mommy and Parker snuggling for the first time! Parker has the cutest eyebrow lift - sometimes he seems so aware of his environment!
You all are in my heart and prayers. The blog has been wonderful...it keeps us posted so we don't have to intrude on your time with the boys and answering a million questions...I check it regularly. However, make sure you take time for yourselves, it is just as important! I was over by UCD last week, it toke all my effort not to drop by and see if you were there and to see the boys. Oh, the pictures...They both look like you Dad! Blessings on the four of you!
Your blog is awesome...it keeps us posted on the day-to-day adventures...thanks for sharing, and you will be continually lifted up in prayer...these two miracles have already touched so many lives...and I dare say "made a lasting impression on all of us"...may you continue to feel the Lord's presence daily...He's walking right beside you...

We live each day with a sense of hope, happiness, and determination. We take one step at a time, day by day, knowing that we will one day wake up and find ourselve with two grown sons! We savor their existence and try so hard to not take ANY time for granted. After a five year struggle leading up to the birth of our darling little ones, we are so grateful for the family we've been given. This blog has become our family journal that inspires and comforts us daily. Thank you for sharing in this journey with us!
