The Girls Have Arrived!

Clark and I had our twins October 6, 2009 at 7:36 and 7:37 pm. I wasn't scheduled to be induced until the 9th, but after my doctor's visit last Tuesday, they decided to deliver the girls a few days sooner.

Everything went very well. I was told to expect to have a c-section since baby "B" would be too small to handle labor. But, as it turned out, she did very well and I was able to have a natural delivery (the delivery of these babies was even easier than my first).

Mary Gail Evans was born first at 7:36. She weighed 5 lbs 6 oz and stretched out to be 18 inches long. Tess Ginger Evans was pulled out by the ankles a minute later at 7:37. She weighed 3 lbs 11 oz and measured to be 17 inches.


Doctor Clark. Even though I had a natural delivery, everyone was dressed for a c-section.

Congratulations! My sister had a baby a month before you and she was 3lbs 12 oz. So tiny. Hope they are both doing well and you are recovering quickly. What does Stockton think?
