Jessica went into labor this morning and the medications weren't working to stop her contractions, so our doctors decided to let her go on and have the babies.
Zachary was born at 3:45 pm and Grant was born at 3:51 pm. Each weighed 3 lbs 4 oz and had a full head of black hair. They were both breathing on their own but were becoming fatigued, so they were put on ventilators to help them out until they are a little stronger. They are now in the neonatal ICU's at Texas Children's Hospital. The doctors seem optimistic that they will do just fine.
Jessica will be in the hospital for a few more days for antibiotics for an infection of the IV that she had in her left arm. When the antibiotics are done, she will be discharged home and hopefully the boys will follow soon after.
Wow! Congratulations. Praise God for babies that are were able to breathe on their own for a little while. You guys are in my prayers! I hope you get to hold your sweet boys soon!
