Congrats! That is great news! So exciting, I wish we lived closer to come and see you! We are thrilled for you and glad to see that mom and babies are doing well. Good luck with the names! Love, Terri, Francisco, and Kate

Congrats Janis and Christopher! We are so excited for you two (and especially that Janis will be able to get off the couch soon, I mean not that she'll have time to, with taking care of two little boys, but at least the doctor will allow it now!) And best of luck with names, I agree with Allio's suggestions. Love Jameson and Harrison, and would add Britton and Holland to the never-ending list. (Although I just realized those are BOTH countries....that's kinda lame, sorry! Maybe don't use both my suggestions....lol)

love the photos. keep them coming as you get the chance. They look wise, and like they'll have light hair. Not quite the size of Moses, but I think they'll soon be able to hold their own. Congrats again.

Lindsay said...

Your boys are adoreable! I can't even remember when Kash was that small. I'll be going through all my preemie clothes if you are interested in them. Just let me know.
