Remember Mindy and Charissa who are expecting twins??!



Well guess what?

Born last Monday at 34 weeks please welcome to the world baby girl Drew (3.9 pounds):

and baby boy Baxter (5.1 pounds):

 The babies are doing well but will be spending some time in the NICU as they gain strength and some essential newborn skills.  I got to peek in on them in their little incubators, or isolettes, and I felt like I was peeking in on a secret. 

Ella is just about dead to get into the NICU to see them and thinks it is wholly unfair that siblings of NICU babies get behind the locked door and she does not. I assure her we will have all our lives to be with these twins but she sulks and pouts just the same.











I cannot imagine how difficult it was for Mindy and Charissa to leave the hospital Friday and leave their babies behind.

Welcome to the world Drew and Baxter, making a family of 3 a family of 5.  We love you all.
