We meet yet again (if only for a couple of minutes). While I was holding Derby, Loen’s nurse Lee brought her over for a quick visit. It took a little wrangling as they had to stretch the wires to make it to us. I wish we could have gotten better pictures but the lights were down low. It was so wonderful to have them both in my arms, at the same time. They turned their heads into each other just like in the womb. It was beautiful.

Happy Birthday Tadd!
And nice job on twinnage snuggling. So big! Four pounds and into actual cribs. That is awesome.
BTW, anything not done first by parents doesn’t count as a first. So saith the Hatchet! ; )

First birthday as a dad! Too cool. The twinkies look adorable. That’s the first and last time, probably, that they’ll lay together without hair pulling occurring. Oh, siblings.
