My news from Jenny Kate this morning is so wonderful, four little McMullen babies are sharing a crib in the "step down" area of the NICU (less critical care)! Paul and Jenny Kate have been told that Charlotte and Pallie will likely go home "soon", which could mean days or maybe weeks followed by Duncan and Lucy as they are ready. 
The babies must be able to maintain body temperature, take 8 feeding/ 24 hours with a bottle (a lot of work for a little preemie), and consistently gain weight in order to go home. Needless to say the prospect of the babies' homecomings is met with great joy and some apprehension. Thank you for continuing to lift up this lovely young family that God would give them peace and endurance for the task he has set before them, and that He would continue to bless and protect these four tiny little McMullans.
"Paul and I are thrilled at the prospect of having our family together under one roof! The Lord has been good to us! We are also terrified by the logistics of being parents to six very young children and would appreciate prayers as the homecoming days approach." With love, Jenny Kate
