Sisters

Not the best picture in the world, but...

Angelie is back from Shikoku, and she has caught a cold! The twins and Megumi are back home as well, and all seem to be doing fine. Daddy was sent to the doctor today to get a flu shot, so is feeling a bit weird tonight!

Pics from Megumi's Cellphone

A montage of pics from Megumi's hospital room.
I went to visit yesterday and walked into the lactation room where the ladies get their boobs out! Oops!

Angelie is back tomorrow, byt the way. That will be fun, although I think she may have forgotten all the English I drilled into her!

Twins Video

I have put a couple of short clips on my blip page as well.

I couldn't figure out which baby was which! Let's put that down to excitement and relief and nerves (it was just a few minutes after their birth)! Looking forward to them all coming back, and seeing how Angele reacts!

I will be updating this video page periodically, possibly adding some older Angelie videos as well, so feel free to bookmark this page if so inclined. I hope Blip doesn't go bust, but no guarantees there!!!

Couple More Twin Pics

There are a couple of photos on the page below, including one of Megumi's stomach before the birth (I have naked pictures as well, which I am still not sure whether to post or not!)

Twins Appearance

Well, here they are. They turned out to be a little bigger than expected!
Lilian Iloha was 2812g, or 6 pounds, 2 ounces. She arrived at 9:36AM.
Vivien Nanoha was a whopping 3106g, or 6 pounds, 8 ounces, and she was dragged out by the feet at 9:37AM.

As the average size for a normal (non-twin) baby in Japan is around 3000g, having two around that size is quite rare.
The doctors and nurses were all a bit shocked.
The babies seem perfectly healthy; they were certainly crying fairly impressively for a while. Megumi is also in good spirits. She is recovering forom the operation, but was feeling fit enough to practice a bit of breast feeding in the afternoon.
Anyway, more photos will doubtless follow, but that's about it for now.

Yesterday was also Rosie's birthday, so the twins could be a present from her to our family.
