    Emergency c-section? I can just hear the doctor… “This woman is offering me sexual favors to get those kids out. Operate! Stat!”
    And yay! I recognize the onsie on that little darling girl!
    Congrats to you guys, and may the wonder of holding those babies quickly wash away all the suffering you did to get them here.

    Heartfelt congratulations to the new family. May the six of you always be happy, healthy and surrounded by love!
    I’m sorry to hear you had to have an emergency C-section. However, I’m very happy to see that Nick & Nora (how cute, I know these aren’t the “real” names but I love them just the same) appear to be quite healthy!
    I know you’ll be busy getting to know the new additions, feeling your way around as you learn who they are, recovering from childbirth…so please take your time getting back here. We’ll all be dying of curiosity for the finer details…but truly we can wait. Take care of you and those magnificent wee ones first.
    Wishing you all once again the best of everything!
    Hugs,
    Poppy
