All About Ava

Here are some of the more recent pics our daughter, Ava.




Her eyes are closed in most of these pics - but she's awake and aware all the time. We'll have to get more of those...






Sleeping closeup.

Ava sick of taking pictures...


And finally a guest appearance from Colin, on the left.

Happy New Year!

What a difference a year makes.

The twins got a visit on New Years Day from newlyweds, Pam and Rocky. They finally tied the knot on the 31st after a very long courtship. We went from trying for so long to start a family and having disappointment last New Years to having twin miracles by the year's end. So Rocky summed up 2008 in such a succinct way -- what a difference a year makes. Indeed.

As always, some pictures for your viewing pleasure...

Baby Update and Video

Babies are doing well, still under the care of the wonderful nurses at the NICU at Beth Israel Hospital. They have both gained weight and are still "getting the hang of it" before they are allowed to come home with us. We go over every day to help out, then we have to say goodnight and come home... Hopefully this weekend.

Until then, here's the first of what promises to be thousands of baby videos. Warning: this video includes the actual birth and just a little blood. But it's not that bad at all... Enjoy.
