My best friend, Kristin Lewis, had her twin boys Sunday afternoon. It was a surprise to say the least. Lamar and I were driving home to Austin, and were all the way to Waco, when we got a phone call from Todd.... "the twins were coming"! Well, after a few minutes of debating, Lamar and I decided that friends were more important than getting home. So we turned around and headed to the hospital.
When we got there, the boys had just arrived. Because they are only 34 weeks, they have to stay in the NICU for a few days, so I didn't get to see them. I did get to sneak a peak through the little window on the door of the NICU, but a scarecrow sitting on the desk was blocking my view. I got to see Miles's legs and Sam's arms flailing around, which was pretty great! And of course, I saw lots of pictures that Todd took while the boys were being born.
Miles weighed 5 lbs 3 oz and Sam weighed 4 lbs 9 oz. For 34 week preemie twins, their birth weight is really great! As soon as their blood sugar level, and heartrates are where they need to be, and they can eat from a bottle consistenly, they will get to go home. (I think) So please be praying for these little boys and their wonderful mommy and daddy.
I cannot wait to see and hold these precious little boys. What a blessing from God they are!
Because I didn't get to see the babies, these are the only pictures I have. I will post more as soon as I get them. In the meantime, watch Kristin's blog, I'm sure she will post some as soon as she gets a spare moment.

Best friends.....in good times!

I think we did a really good job of announcing. You can tell from the picture we are very enthusiastic announcers. We should do this professionally.
