Finally!


They are here! After 37 weeks and about 7 hours of labor, at 3.04 and 4:18 pm each Shea Therese and Cooper Louis Carlon arrived on February 19th. Shea was 6lbs even and came out first. Cooper was 6lbs 6 ounces and came out as the baby. Shea was delivered naturally and even after a wonderful job by Jenene pushing for an hour and the doctor turning cooper to good position, they needed to go and get him to be on the safe side. Both babies are happy and healthy and home now and enjoying life. Tyler John is a very proud big brother and loves holding his brother and sister. Jenene has recovered wonderfully and was really amazing through the whole delivery and recovery process. People could not believe that she was up and walking around the next day after all she went through. I don't even think amazing sums it up enough.

Now comes the tough part. They have been sleeping ok but have had a few nights where they were up for a few hours. It's tougher this time around because Jenene and I can't give each other a break when there is two of them. Luckily we are at my in laws because we are getting work done on the house so there has been a lot of help for us. I am finally back to work today too and it seems like they are managing without me. I'll try to keep this going with their updates and accomplishments as much as possible but for now, here is a good picture of them and their brother.
