Here is my family of 5! The twins thought about joining us on Monday the 19th. I was checked into the hospital and given drugs to stop the contractions long enough for me to get two steriod injections. Then on Thursday the 22nd we had Timothy Foss Boland and Christopher Edward Boland. Labor went very smoothly and they came only 7 minutes apart. They were born 33 weeks and 6 days into pregnancy which means they both have to spend some time in the NICU. Tim has been a super star and Chris had a few minor issues the first few days but is doing well now. As of yesterday, they are both doing everything on their own except eating.

Me and my babies :)
Timothy Foss Boland at 24 hours of life. He was born at 10:34pm and was 4lbs 9 oz and 18 inches
Christopher Edward Boland at 24 hours of life. He was born at 10:41pm and was 5lbs 2 oz and 19 inches
Jack investigating Tim
Fortunately my parents were here when I checked into the hospital for a week. They have been watching Jack and taking care of everything so I didn't have anything else to worry about while I was in the hospital. They have also made it possible for me to spend 4-5 hours a day at the NICU. I don't know what would have happened without them.
