They're HERE!!!!

Colin James and Lauren Avery were welcomed into the world today (December 17, 2009) at 7:57 and 7:58 AM. Colin was 6#1oz, 18.5" and Lauren weighed in at 4#15oz and 18". Both Colin and his "little" sister are doing wonderful! Krisy is also doing really well and as expected, her and Luke are very proud and excited that their family has finally grown by two more!

Colin looks exactly like his mama and Lauren (according to Grandma Udelhoven) looks like Luke. It was definitely a special day for the whole family! I was lucky enough to share the excitement with the grandparents by waiting for the babies to be wheeled from the OR into the waiting area for us to meet them for the first time! Tears of joy were shed by all!!

About 10 minutes old. Lauren on the left, Colin on the right.
