WELCOME HENRY AND OWEN!

We welcomed Owen Thomas and Henry Steven into the world Sunday, December 3rd at 4:50 and 4:57 pm. Owen weighed 4 lbs 2 oz and Henry weighed 3 lbs 14 oz. Both had great Apgar scores and have been doing well for their gestational age. They were born at 33 weeks, 5 days.

They are in the Special Care Nursery and doing "as expected". Neither of them really knows how to suck yet (a trait that usually arrives at 35 weeks gestation) but once they figure that out, they will hopefully flourish. They aren't gaining weight as a result of this, but they are still doing just fine. The picture on the left is Henry sleeping, and the one on the right is Owen looking around. We think they are just TOO cute!!
