We Have Babies!!!

We have babies!!! After a visit to the doctor on Tuesday, we were admitted to the hospital for a c-section due to my rising blood pressure. Katherine Marie "Kate" Allmon was born at 10:52 pm, and Charles Raymond "Charlie" Allmon was born 2 minutes later at 10:54 pm on December 18th. Kate weighed in at 5 lbs 4oz, 17 1/4" long, and Charlie weighed 5lbs 9oz, 18 1/2" long. Kate had to be admitted to the NICU for breathing issues, but she was quickly released the next day, which was wonderful. The twins are absolutely beautiful (what parent would say otherwise)! Charlie looks like he takes after his mother, while Baby Kate is definitely her father's daughter. We were all discharged from the hospital on Friday evening, just in time for Christmas. It's been the best Christmas present ever, and we couldn't be happier or more blessed. Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes and Merry Christmas!
