Corinne meets her little sisters Ellen and Sophie

Corinne was able to visit Mommy and Daddy in the hospital this afternoon and meet her little sisters, Ellen and Sophie, for the first time. Betsy said that Corinne was very excited and really loved seeing the little girls -- you can see her big smiles in the photos below. She even told Betsy that she wanted to hold them! And so she did. I'm sure that Corinne is already looking forward to visiting again tomorrow. And Ellen and Sophie gave Corinne a present -- a cute polka-dotted piggy bank! Wasn't that nice of them?



Everyone is doing well. So far, Ellen and Sophie have done a very good job of sleeping between feedings (and they are feeding very well). Betsy is feeling good right now, but tired, and the really powerful drugs will probably wear off sometime tonight or tomorrow.


I can confirm a few more details: Ellen was born first and was Baby A. They both have full heads of golden brown hair (one a bit lighter than the other), though not quite as much as Corinne had when she was born. And Betsy said that of the twins, Ellen most closely resembles Corinne.


Many thanks from Betsy and Brett for all the messages and good wishes.

Betsy,

I was praying for you all on my morning walk today. What awesome news ... and the weights blow me away. Happy Mother's Day!
