Let's Meet Nonno and Baba!
Hope Licciardello
Since the girls have finally hit the 34 week mark they are allowed to be held by what are called support persons. Chris and I got to choose 4 people that can enter the NICU without us and interact with the girls. We added both of our parents to the list.
Grandpa Licciardello who is called Nonno (Italian for grandfather) got to hold Sammi for the first time! I’d say she looks very comfy :)
At this point in time the biggest thing we’ve noticed is that both are keeping their eyes open longer and attempting to follow movement. They are both still super sensitive to light so if you shade their eyes you’ll often see a sliver of parting eyelids and then if you’re lucky wide eyes!
Chris has to go home to work this whole week so mom and grandma Licciardello affectionately named baba (Ukrainian for grandmother) are having a girls week!
