Happy Birthday!

Well, Delaney Mae and Alexa Janae were born this morning at 8:53 a.m. Delaney weighed in at 3 pounds, 10 ounces, and Alexa weighed in at 3 pounds, 8 1/2 ounces. Both girls measured 16 inches long. Both Delaney and Alexa were put on a c-pap initially to assist with their breathing, but they have both since been taken off and have been breathing unassisted! Everything went smoothly with the c-section and we are thrilled with how well the girls are doing so far. We were even able to hold them for a while this evening doing "kangaroo care" where you hold the baby skin to skin. They seem so small and fragile, especially compared to our usual 10 pound babies, but they are so sweet! We are so grateful that they are both here and healthy, all things considered! It was pretty amazing to see the cords all twisted, and Alexa had the cords wrapped and looped around her midsection twice, and yet they are both out and doing amazingly well. Praise God!
