They were earlier than we would have liked, but they just couldn't wait! Kim's blood pressure kept getting higher and higher until there was no other choice but to have a c-section. During the last 24 hours they have both been taken off the breathing machines and are breathing room air on their own. Steve is feeding them through their stomach tubes tonight. As you can see they both have dark hair. I think Creighton has an Ogden chin. It looks a lot like Easton's right now. You can see his soft spot low on his forehead. The light is hitting it just right in this pic because it is really not that noticeable. Connor has the same thing. I guess it is quite rare, the nurses were wondering about it. Connor's is closing up fine, no problems, so I am guessing Creighton's will too.
This is the little man, Creighton D weighing in at 4 lbs 15 oz.
Sweet baby Kyjah Rae weighed just 4 lbs.
She is so cute and little. She is as long as Creighton (18 inches) but a pound lighter. When Gramps (Rod) was visiting her today, she started to fuss a little and cry. He said it was just a little squeeking noise.
The parents don't know it yet, but their lives are forever changed. Welcome to the fam, Kyjah and Creighton.
They are still doing really good. They had to go under the lights for 24 hours or so. They were a little jaundice. They are eating through a feeding tube and are gaining a little. Creighton is on the right, Kyjah on the left. I haven't heard Creighton say much, but Kyjah can really yell up a storm. She lets them know if she isn't happy. The nurse was trying to put her on her tummy to sleep and she was having none of it. She wouldn't quit until the nurse put her on her side.
