[Games] Re: Congrats Part Three
in reply to a message by Miss Lissa
Luke & I are proud to announce that we are the proud parents of twins...a bouncing baby boy & a beautiful baby girl! Both our son & our daughter came into the world on March 13th, weighing 5 pounds, 7 ounces; 18 1/2 inches long. They look a lot alike with mommy's nose & daddy's eyes. Jude Hamilton Luis was born first at 5:09 PM. He is named for three special people in our lives: Jude is his uncle's middle name (Luke's brother), Hamilton was chosen for my mom who always wanted to use the name as a middle name but was never able to, & Luis is for my grandfather. We then welcomed Josephine Monica Lily at 5:34 PM. Her name was also chosen to honor three special people: Josephine is for my uncle Joe, Monica is for a close family friend, & Lily is for my mother Iris (we wanted a different flower name).
Jude & Josephine are absolutely adorable little angels, and are loved dearly by their older sister Janna. She was on cloud nine the first time she held them in the hospital and loves to show them off to whoever comes to visit. She loves holding them, although we often have to remind her that they're not her babies, and she has to be careful to keep the blanket below their faces. She has especially taken to Josephine; I think that may be because she wanted a little sister so badly. Janna it seems has unofficially nicknamed her little sister Jo & Josey, which we're okay with; I think we'll let Josephine decide when she gets older which name she wants to go by. She can't wait for the twins to get older so they can play together. We're thrilled that there seems to be no signs of sibling rivalry or jealousy. We were a little worried because she is such a mommy's girl, but so far, so good.
There weren't any problems at all with the pregnancy or the delivery. However, the twins did decide to come almost three weeks early...a lot like their older sister! They were obviously smaller than Janna was a birth, but that was to be expected since there were two of them. They're doing extremely well and are a welcome addition to our family!
