We are just getting bigger and bigger...take a look

We have had numerous request for an update and pics on the boys.

Avery and Isaac are both doing very well. Avery is now 9 lbs 8 oz. and Isaac is 11 lbs 2 oz. Avery is now off of his monitor and doing great with no complications, no signs of any problems or issues. He has fast developed the patience (or lack thereof) of his little brother though when it comes to feeding, if he doesn't have a bottle within in 60 seconds we are made very aware by him of how hungry he is.

Schedules are getting a little better at night however with two different schedules, well you get the picture. Julie is a great and wonderful mother to them and we again are so glad they are both with us.

Feel free to call however ifwe don't pick up please don't despair as we are probably right in the middle of a feeding or something else.

We will call you back!

First day home

Story about grandmas and the exciting trip home

Hi I'm Avery

Hi I'm Isaac


Story about Isaac

We're here!

Their full names are Jonathan Avery and Isaac Aiden. I did not want to send any out until we had them both home together.

Avery arrived home today at 5PM and we can't begin to explain ur joy at having them both home together. It was the first they have both been together and quite a moment for Julie and I (and JoAnn!)

Again we cannot begin to express how grateful and humbled we are for all of your prayers and help during this time. Isaac continues to do well and the jaundice is gone and Avery has no visible effects from his ordeal.

The doctors have stated over and over again that his condition is not consistent with what he went through and his recovery is a miracle, that is their words.

We love you all and look forward to clogging up the family email with updates and pics of Avery and Isaac!

Wow mom...

Many of you have asked for pictures of Julie while she is pregnant so here is my beautiful wife with our two boys growing inside.

Our last visit to the doctor was this past Friday, 05/23/08, and the boys are now a little over two and half pounds each. Julie is 28 weeks along and they boys due date is August 20th.

The doctors say if they keep growing at the present rate and they go full term the boys will be over 7lbs. each by the time they are born.

Very big for twins!

We just need a little more time...

Now that we have stepped into the 21st century we thought we would send everyone a few pics of the boys. We had our 5th or 6th sonogram this past Friday and while we were in there we had them 4D scan the boys.As we didn't know, and perhaps some of you don't either, 4D is a live feed in 3D versus just a 3D still picture. So enjoy and don't be jealous, cuz theyz our babies boys!
