Kirby and Minnie are fast asleep right now along with mom. We’ve posted some pictures on SmugMug that we’ve taken over the past few days and will be adding more as time goes on.

Now I am off to a quick nap.

The boy is named Kirby Ray, first name is his Great-great-grandfather’s on Vickers’ side and his middle name from his Grandfather on Vickers’ side.

The girl is named Minetta Ann (we’ll call her Minnie), which is her Grandmother’s name on my side.

Thank you all for being so patient and waiting on the names. Mom and babies are still doing great.

At 4:00!!

I am heading up to the hospital and will update you all with more details as soon as I have them if I can.

WOOT!

I thought I’d be emailing you all with a definitive date and time for the arrival of the twins, but it’s looking like it’s still the same outlook…hurry up and wait. Vickers talked to our OB this morning and the OB said the goal is 38 weeks (a week from today) and nothing in Vickers’ lab work indicates that they should (or need) to deliver before then. This is not what we heard from the doctor that was on-call over the weekend. In fact, that doctor said that we should have already delivered by now because of the lab results. It’s a bit frustrating to hear differing opinions from people that are experts in their field, however we know that some doctors can be more aggressive than others and our OB is more on the conservative side–or if you ask Vickers more on the sadistic side. ;)

So, I ask for you all to just pray that Vickers has the continued strength to endure bed rest for another week. She’s been so strong these past two weeks and I am amazed at how she’s dealt with being in the hospital. We both were really hoping that the news this morning was going to be that we’d have a scheduled delivery this week and the news of waiting longer was a bit of a let down. We know God has this all planned out and we are looking to Him for strength and hope.

As for the twins themselves, they are enjoying being in the womb. They get monitored at least once a day and their heartbeats have been strong and steady. The girl likes to try to kick off the monitor from time to time and I think she’s taught her brother the same trick. The nurses now try to catch them when they are sleeping to monitor them. They had another sonogram and they are looking great with both being estimated well over 6lbs each.

Hope you all enjoy your week and I’ll post another update as soon as anything changes!
