THEY'VE ARRIVED!!!!!

Mike and Alyson Barbree welcomed two baby girls to their family this morning. Alyson had a scheduled c-section due to the fact that Baby A (Kaitlyn's) birth weight was on the low side. The doctors thought that it was time that she got more food. :-)

Kaitlyn Blackhall Barbree arrived first at 10:08 am. She weighed 4 pounds 9 ounces and measured 17 inches in length.

Nicole Roberts Barbree arrived next at 10:09 am. She weighed 5 pounds and 12 ounces and measured 20 inches in length.

Everyone is doing well and resting comfortably at Northside Hospital. They expect to be there through Monday morning/afternoon and welcome visitors. Mike and Alyson both have their cell phones with them.

Pictures will be posted on the blog when we get a chance to upload them. www.thebarbreetwins.blogspot.com

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, prayers, advice and encouragement over the past several months. We appreciate everything. Just send us a few more good luck wishes for survival when we get home. :-)

We're Off

We're heading to Northside in just a few minutes. Woo hoo. I actually slept pretty well. I had planned to take a Tylenol PM because I thought I'd be anxious and get no sleep, so I'm sure that helped. It's good that we got that 'one last night' of sleep. :-)

25 Hours and Some Change

It's 8:20 in the morning. By this time tomorrow, Mike and I will already be at Northside probably talking to a doctor or two about the procedure. Wow.

So, in just over 25 hours, the girls will be born and we'll finally be able to meet them. Yippie!!! I can't wait. I have so many questions: will they have hair, who will they look like, how tiny will Kaitlyn actually be, how big will Nicole actually be? Stay tuned...it will all be answered tomorrow.

Yeah!
