The babies are almost a week old!

My girls were born at 8:05 and 8:06 on Jan 25.  They were 6 lbs. 9 oz (Shelby Elaine) and 6 lbs 8 oz (Sidney Eloise).  Both were 19 inches long.  We still arent' sure if they're identical, but we're having a really hard time telling them apart.

So far, everything is going really well!

    LOVE their names!  My pGma's name is Shelby and Elaine was my dh's step mothers MN.  We used it for Kaydance's MN. 

    My girls were also born at 8:05 & 8:06.  (well, really they were both 8:05 but they have to given them their own minute by law or something) 

    Im glad everything is going great.  I made the girls little bead anklets with their initials on them.  That worked until they were old enough to pull them off.  (then its a choking hazard)  I then started painting their toes (of course this doesnt work in the winter when they need socks on)  Maybe a fingernail.  One of ours was pink and one was purple.  We still use pink and purple to tell them apart.  It took us a while to find small features to tell them apart.  Kay now has a slightly slimmer/roung face and Kennedy has a longer fuller face. 

    Congrats momma!

  • Thanks!  We used our grandmothers names for their middle names.  We're going to get pink and purple yarn to tie around their ankles and wrists to tell them apart until we can figure it out.

  • Congrats!!  They are just beautiful :):)
