BIG news! Our twins were born early, Thursday 7/29!
 

Hi Everyone,

I've been offline a lot lately... we had an early arrival, our two boys Morris and Calvin were born last Thursday, August 29th. They were premature at just 33 weeks. Melissa had a natural delivery, is doing well and has been home from the hospital since Saturday. The boys are still in the hospital in the special care nursery but they are also doing well. They were in incubators until this morning to regulate their temperature but now they're in room air inside of a crib at the hospital. We are hopeful that they'll be coming home to Melissa, Elizabeth and myself within the next week.

We've been very blessed with everyone's good health! I wanted to sincerely thank all of you who have kept us in your thoughts and prayers during this stressful time. The boys are just absolutely beautiful and we are so incredibly happy that their health will seemingly be unaffected by their early birth :)
