Congratulations to Blake and Amanda

I haven't posted anything on my blog for a long time, but was reminded tonight how easy it is to share news with family. You may have heard by now, but Blake and Amanda had twin boys Monday night. We would like to welcome Jensen and Everett to the family!

They are 10 weeks early, but Amanda held them back as long as she could with bed rest and everything. Amanda and the boys are doing fine. They are very tiny. I don't know the actual weight, but both are about 3 pounds.

Since they were 10 weeks early, their expected departure from the hospital is 10 weeks. We have been up to visit them three times already and can't wait to be able to hold them. When we went tonight, we were pleasantly surprised to find they have graduated from the most intensive care unit to a step down unit and they no longer require oxygen. "Way to go boys"!
