October 13, 2008......

....we welcomed our two PRECIOUS babies into this world.

At 7:05am, Baby A arrived weighing 6 pounds even, and was a little GIRL! Miss Adalyn Jean.

Twenty-eight minutes later, at 7:33am, Baby B arrived weighing 6 pounds 15 ounces, and was another little GIRL!! Miss Alivia Mae.

Everyone made it through delivery just fine. Both girls were extremely healthy and did not require any time in the NICU! How fantastic and amazing is that? After all of this time worrying about their health, they came home with us just 2 days after delivery.

There will be more updates to come. But for now, mom and dad are trying to get their rest and settle into a routine caring for 2 newborns. Last night (our first night home) was pretty rough, but we are hanging in there.

Adalyn is in purple. Alivia in green.

Jess,
They are just beautiful. And, I love their names! SO pretty! I think Adalyn looks a lot like you. I was so happy to read that they came out healthy and were able to go home with you right away. That is just wonderful! Congratulations to you and Nate!
