Ezekiel's preemie cousins

I got to go to the NICU and meet the twins today. They are now over 3 lbs each and 14 inches long. They are so perfect and teeny tiny! Their hands are like the size of quarters. Their perfect little heads are the size of the top of a bottle of Parmesan cheese. It is awesome (AWESOME) to think that someone so small can live! They still wouldn't even be born for 7 more weeks if they were to go full term! Of course they are on all kinds of monitors and breathing tubes but as soon as they hear, smell, or feel Mandy all of their stats even right off and they become calm and breathe on their own. It is amazing how well they know/sense their Mommy.

Mandy got to hold them together for the first time. It was just awesome. Here she is after the girls were handed to her:
