So as I was standing by the bedside when a woman wielding a DSLR (clearly not family) came by and starting taking pictures of our neighbor baby. I thought it was a little intrusive (HIPAA rights and all) but it turns out that she was part of a volunteer organization, First Memories, that helps families in the NICUs cope by taking pictures to remember these first few weeks of life. They can also make scrapbook-like cards with these pics so it's all done for you. What a great idea during a stressful time for parents! Here are a few that these grandmotherly ladies took:
We are having Mommy and Me "kangaroo" time to bond. Olivia fits in my shirt!

Update: They don't have their tanning beds anymore but are now a normal pinky color! Also, no more IVs and are having a trial run at no CPAP for breathing assistance. Progress!
