Babies!!!

Congratulations to my boss, Carey. She had her twin babies on Monday afternoon. Joseph Jay, 5 lbs 3 oz., 18", was born at 3:27 pm. James Edward, 5 lbs, 17 1/2 ", was born at 3:28 pm. (If you're wondering about the closeness of the delivery, yes it was a C-section. Carey is doing fine. The boys were just 34 weeks, so they had a few complications. They can't breathe on their own. James still can't control his body temperature, but Joseph can. They're both jaundiced. I don't know if there's anything else. Their size helps a lot. 5 lbs seems so small, but it's really good for how early they are. I saw them today for the first time. They're little, tiny, cute, sweet. I can't wait until they're better and I can hold them and play with them. So far, it looks like they shouldn't have too many problems, especially once their lungs develop, but we'll still keep them in our prayers and hope nothing changes, except for the better. They'll be at the hospital for at least a few more weeks. I had told Carey she wasn't allowed to have them next week when I'm on vacation, so at least she listens to some things I say. I imagine it will be a busy and crazy time until the twins get to come home, with Carey going back and forth from home to the hospital. What do mothers of newborn twins do who don't have a wonderful, terrific, beautiful, precious nanny to watch their older kids?

In other news: Snow Sucks! Yes, yes, we had snow today. I know about 80% of the nation has had snow in the past week, so why should we be any different. But I still wish it had waited until Saturday, when I'll be on my way to Florida.

Countdown:
2 1/2 days until Jack in the Box
3 1/2 days until cruise day!!
