They are Here!


After what seemed like forever to me, the girls are here safe and healthy. They were born Saturday, December 27th. Because of possible complications they were delivered in the OR, which was not my favorite, but worth the safety of the babies. The delivery went as smoothly as possible and both girls were born without any complications or problems.
On the left is Lillian Charlotte, she weighed in at 5lbs 5ozs and is 18 inches long. On the right is Aleia Caroline, she weighed in at 5lbs. 6ozs. and is 19 inches long. Aleia was born first at 1:21pm, followed closely behind by Lillian who was born at 1:23pm.
Needless to say everyone is very excited to have them here.

They look great!!! Now, don't forget to take time to breath. And don't be afraid to ask your visiting teacher to come over for a few minutes so that you can take a shower. We want before pictures of your belly!!! The names you picked are beautiful, but how do you pronounce Aleia's name? Are they identical or fraternal? Do you feel like you have been deflated?! After your milk levels out, I bet you will be feeling great! Take care!

I was also wondering how you pronounce Aleia's name...My middle name is Lei, prounounced by us as "Lee" but a lot of people pronounce it as "Lay" like the Hawaiian way to say it.

Ok - I am going to laugh, Lillian...I hope you got that from my suggestion of Lilly?!?!? Anyways, I think Elizabeth is no longer going to be able to be called Ellie - your dad will NEVER keep them straight. I mean Scott and Jason are not even close, but he already calls Ellie - Lily. At least he will get one or the other with whatever he says!!! He did say it would be fine though - he was soooo happy to be there with you guys. Anyways, hope you are doing well. Congrats...we will talk to you again soon! luvs and congrats to all.
