My lovely wife gave birth to my two sons this afternoon. All are doing good and healthy.
I'm off to send more emails and make a few phone calls to people that I probably called already!!!
Today is a good day!

Well, good news! The fun is just beginning for you. I hope you enjoy the next twenty years watching them turn into people, just like I have with mine.

Thanks all!!!!
Just home for a nap then back to the hospital.
Word of warning, when your in the OR and the doc says you can go on the other side of the curtin to take a pic of the boys coming out (it was a c section), DON'T!!!!!!!
It was an impressive sight seeing the two little ones coming out of a space where you can't figure out how they fit in there in the first place!
As for pics, if anyone is on facebook, pm me and i'll shoot ya an email addy to look me up.
Thanks again!
Kris

x2 on the nap, get some sleep whenever you can.
And congrats! They'll change your life, that's for sure. Remember to take time for the little things. Kids are amazing to watch, even little things like the first time my daughter saw a caterpillar or got her first puppy.

Kris, Congratulations! Start saving up you energy, your going to need it to grow that extra set of eyes in the back of your head and the extra long arms for when they get mobile and rapidly go different directions!! Enjoy! - Eric (aka twin two  )

Congratulations again. My two sons were the best thing that ever happened to me. They changed my life and taught me a great many things; all of which I am thankful for. Every day with them is a blessing and a new learning experience. Good luck and God bless.

Finally back from the hospital and looking like the three of them will be released tomorrow.
I'm here at home, 10:30pm trying to put together a double bassinet together with two cats dying for attention while on very little sleep since they came out on Friday afternoon.
Damn, I need a beer!
