They're Here!


November 13, 2006
6:30 ish
7 minutes apart
6 hours of hard labor
12 hours of labor total
Lenora Josephine (Nora)
6 lbs 1 oz - 18 1/2 in
0 pushes, she just swam her way out!
Sophie Ruth (Sophie)
6 lbs 7 oz - 19 in
1 1/2 pushes, they told me to stop pushing!
Both are in the NICU, everything is fine but they were born in the 34th week and so they won an automatic trip!
We are waiting for a few days of consecutive weight gain and then everyone will get to come home. (yes, those are feeding tubes in their little bitty noses, for occasional use only!)
I have been discharged but will go back to the hospital tonight for one more night as a 'guest'.

Lydia and Samantha are doing AWESOME bouncing between lots and lots of people who are pitching in to help this family.
