Twins Big Day

Here is a video of Dean sharing Halle's finger while they are in the crib together

Day 2 for the twins (30th was day 0)

Yesterday we finally got Halle out of the Humidicrib in the afternoon...the rest of the day was spent with everyone learning how to perform the ancient art of breastfeeding, so apologies for the lack of post.

Biggest milestone today was the twins had their first bath and here are the pictures to prove it... daddy did well and is a fast learner.

Here are the lovely flowers and gifts we have received from our friends

The Big Day has arrived.... Welcome to Dean and Halle

Tracey and Peter welcomed their beautiful twins, Dean, born at 1323, weighing 4lb 15oz (2240g) and Halle, born at 1325, weighing 5lb 1oz. Everyone is doing well.

The bubs needed to go into humidicribs initally but that was only for maintainng their body temperature.

Better late than never

Hi All,

I know I have been slack and we are only 10 days away from the big day and there have been no photos on this blog...

Today I am going to surprise you all with photos from our last scan at 33 weeks..






As you can see the girl is very photogenic...

The boy has always been camera shy and even here he is more interested in sucking his foot or hands


More photos will be posted after the birth

The good news

On the 14th of October Tracey celebrated another year of life...



It was very difficult for me to organise a romantic dinner for her because she was feeling under the weather.



It was this day that we shared with our family and friends that we will be the proud parents of twins in May 2009.



Now I have laid bets that they will both be girls but I am happy with any combination (except that I will be $40 poorer).



Here is the babies first picture..

We will post more soon
