Hey guys!! I wanted to share my good news with you all. On Friday, September 12, at 12:27PM, my wife gave birth to our son and daughter! Andrew came out at 5lbs. 6oz, and his sister Kaylin weighed in at 4lbs. 5oz. They were five weeks early, and need a little extra help with their lung development, so they'll be in the NICU for a few weeks before they come home. That'll be pretty tough, but it's for the best. My wife is doing just fine. If all goes well, she'll come home from the hospital later today.

As soon as I can figure out how to re-size my pictures, I'll post them.

Congrats on bringing a couple more potential woodworkers into the world, Keith! I hope all goes well in the NICU, as we went through that with all 3 of our kids (one at a time, though). Feel free to e-mail or PM me if you have any questions or need some encouragement. I won't lie to you--it's tough physically, mentally and emotionally to have kids in the NICU. BTDT.

Wow.... That's great news
They will be very close for a lifetime. I know because I have a twin sister. I let her out first and..... she outweighed me at birth. We were both 7lbs somethin'.

Enjoy your new family. Congratulations..

Congratulations Keith,

You don't mess around when starting a family do you? You are beginning a wonderful chapter in your life. There is nothing more fulfilling than raising your children, unless it's spoiling your grandchildren! Glad all are doing well.

You will get real proficient quick. Not only will you be making two of everything. Each piece will have to be constructed where one doesn't look better than the other one! :)

Congratulations Keith and Mom! You have truly been blessed. You can rest assured that the little ones are getting the best of care.........my wife once worked at St. Louis Childrens Hospital in the NICU Unit, and I can tell you first hand, these Nurses take care of these Babies as if they were their own. We hope that they will be home in no time...........enjoy them while they are little ones, they get big WAY too fast! That is the best Gloat to date! :D

Keith congrats! But... they really sound like two small gloats to me. :D A big gloat takes help to carry... well... maybe you are right! OK, let's see. That's FOUR cradle ends... and that doesn't count spares, etc. I thought one made for interesting (and mostly fun) nights. Enjoy them.
