Noelle Catherine and Lucas James entered the world at 3:59PM and 4:00PM this afternoon. She was 19 in. and 6lb 4oz; he was 18 in. and 6lb 5oz. Both are stunning (i.e., have my genes) and in good health.
After 24 hours of painful contractions with little progress, we decided to go Roman-style and get a Caesarian. Kel is recovering, though her blood pressure has shot up quite a bit. The twins are in the transitional nursery for the time being. I've had some facetime; Kel has barely seen and held them for two minutes.
More updates later, as free time and my energy level allows. We're awaiting transfer to our post-delivery room. I have a few photos but they're not online yet.
