Double the Pleasure

Well, the twins decided to come to their new family on February 28th.  We had so much fun being a part of their exciting day.  We were so excited to get to share the day with Tanner and Chelsey and all of Chelsey's extended family.  Tanner looks so official in his blue paper clothes.  Because it was a double birth - the twin had to be born in the operating room.  Tiffany (Chelsey's Mom) and I were allowed to stand in the NICU unit where they had a pass-through window from the operating room. Tanner had the privilege of cutting the cord for Cooper, but not Kylie because she had a little harder time descending down the birth canal.  As soon as she was born they rushed her into the NICU unit along with Cooper.  Both babies were having a little problem breathing so they were placed on some oxygen tubes to help their lungs develop. Great Job Tanner and Chelsey!

Here is Dennis holding that little tiny hand - Cooper had an incredible grip for only being a few hours old.

 The nurses in the NICU unit put signs about the bassinet for each of the twins.

 This is me holding the twins after they arrived home - Chelsey is going to have some great arm muscles after holding two babies all the time.

 Here is an up close and personal view of the babies.

 Dennis and I are the "typical" extra proud grandparents.

 I just love this picture - they look so peaceful and calm.  I wonder if it will last????

 Here we are again a week later at Chelsey's parents house.  We went out to Dinner for Tanner's birthday.

 Ah, yes the proud parents - Chelsey doesn't even look like she has just had babies - way to go Chelsey!
