The babies doth cometh

Last night, January 22nd, 2007, our little family doubled in size with the arrival of 2 little bundles of joy: Lorelai Kate and Reece Joseph. Lorelai was born at 8:43 Pm and weighed in at 4lbs 13oz and Reece was born at 9:07 PM and weighed 4lb 12 oz.

It was a very emotional night, and I'll tell the whole story at another time. Lisa and Lorelai are doing really well. Reece has had a little bit of a rough start to life, but he is a strong, strong little boy, and is getting better every hour. He's currently in the NICU, but they've removed him from the CPAP machine they had him on to help him breathe, and is now on just regular 21% Oxygen via a nasal tube. We hope to have him out of the NICU in the next couple of days.

Many thanks to all of you who have already expressed so many kind words and helped out. We really do appreciate it.

I'll update as I have time over the next few days and post some pictures as soon as I remember to bring the camera home from the hospital.
