| Jacob and Judah |
| What?!!!! Twins?!!!! :-) Yes, we were going to have twins! Lizzie was very sick early in the pregnancy and the doctor wanted to see if twins could be causing the extreme nausea and sure enough we were having two! Lizzie always wanted twins but actually receiving them is a different story!! There was no family history of twins, so these two were very much a surprize lol. After about 5 months the nausea finally wore off and boy did Lizzie have an appetite! It was difficult getting around since she was always in bed those first months and especially with the added weight she tired easily. |

| Jacob Israel 5.9 lbs |
| We soon discovered that we were going to have boys! How are we going to deal with two boys?!!! lol. At 36 weeks along they decided to induce Lizzie because she had developed preeclampsia (high blood pressure). They started to induce late friday nite. She got an epidural (OF COURSE!) but they messed up the first time and she had to have it replaced. When it came time to push she pushed for 3 hours to no avail- Judah, the first one down, just din't want to come out yet :-) So they gave her a C-Section and at 4:08 and 4:09 PM on Feb. 24 the boys were born, weighing 5.9 and 5.6 WOW imagine if they waited another month before they were born!! lol! |
