Two Precious Girls!!!

We feel so blessed to announce the arrival of our two precious baby girls. They entered the world on October 23, 2008 at 1:49pm and 1:50pm. Cate Grace arrived first and weighed 5lb 15oz and Ava Faith arrived right after and weighed in at 5lb 14oz. They are both perfectly healthy and went straight to the waiting room to meet Erick and our families after delivery.

I am sorry it has taken me so long to update. I ended up having to be completely under for the delivery (c-section) and had a longer recovery than I expected. Erick was not allowed to be in the operating room because of this, but we had such an awesome nurse who got some pictures as soon as the girls came out. Since I was under, everyone got to see and find out the gender of the babies before I did. Erick came back to recovery to tell me what we had which was such a special moment to me, since I really wanted him to be the one to tell instead of the doctor shouting it out. Boy was I surprised to find out we had two girls. I have the worst intuition ever!

I will add pictures once I make the blog private, which may be a week or so since we have been really busy. We got home yesterday afternoon and let me tell you, two at the same time are a lot of work, but the best work there could ever be!
