Dedication

Last weekend was a fun and special time for our family. We participated in the Baby Dedication at our church. There’s nothing magical about that for the girls, of course — it basically just means that we stood up in front of the congregation, showed off our beautiful little girls, and committed ourselves to [...]

Similarities

People keep asking us if the girls are identical twins, and we keep telling them that we just don’t know for sure. If you missed a previous explanation, the reason is that the hospital didn’t do DNA testing because it’s not essential, and all of the things that might have indicated one way or the [...]

Vocal

We’re still really enjoying how much more vocal the girls have become in the last few weeks. A few days ago Elizabeth really got into it and chattered away for about 30 minutes straight. What is she talking about, I wonder? Or perhaps she’s singing?

Ticklish Talkers & Pumpkin Patch Pix

Wow, it’s already late October, and we missed the 5 month update opportunity a couple weeks ago! I’m pleased to say that Carolyn and Elizabeth are both doing very well. They’ve managed to stay healthy, even though I recently got slammed with a flu virus or something that lasted for about 10 days. Fortunately, it [...]

Videos from July and August

Over the last few months I got a little behind schedule in processing and editing the video footage we took of the girls, but recently I’ve been working to get caught up again. Here are a few highlights! The first clip shows some of the first genuine giggles from either of the girls, and strangely [...]

Slideshow

I’ve been conscious of the fact that I haven’t posted any new videos of the girls in several months, but lately I’ve been working on sorting through all the footage we have and editing some things together. Fresh new videos will be posted soon!

What I have to offer today is sort of a hybrid — [...]

Bath Time

Tuesdays and Saturdays are bath days in the Intensive Care Nursery, and a couple days ago I shot some video of Janet giving Elizabeth a bath. It’s really fun having them completely disconnected from all of the wires, if only for a little while.

Twins update and new videos!

The girls are almost two weeks old now, and for the most part they seem to be doing very well. The heart rate and breathing alarms still go off once in a while, but it seems that they’re both doing what they need to do — just get a little older and keep developing. Elizabeth [...]

Carolyn and Elizabeth in action!

If a picture is worth a thousand words, and a film is thousands of pictures, then this little video of our tiny little girls must be worth millions of words. I’m loving the snazzy new HD video camcorder we bought! But I love these girls even more.
