Tuesday the doctor performed a C section on Nadine and helped bring our two beautiful baby girls into the world. It was a incredible moment to see them come into my life and heart. I love them so much, and of course they are the cuties babies you will ever see. Just look at them.
Fayth Elizabeth on the top was born first at 3:17 pacific time on November 7, 2006. She weighed 5 lbs 12 oz and was 18 inches long. Daisy Christine on the bottom was born second at 3:18 pacific time on November 7, 2006. She weighed 5 lbs 6 oz and was as tall as her sister, 18 inches.
The names are very significant to us. Fayth is named after the fact that it took faith to bring her into our life. As such she is named in honor of the prayers offered in faith by all of you in our favor. Daisy is named after my father-in-law's mother. My father-in-law die about 2 years ago and is sorely missed by all who knew him. He loved all his children and grandchildren. Our girls will know their Papa's love through us and Daisy will remind us that we are still connected to him. Elizabeth is both Nadine's mother's and antie's (she raise Nadine's father) middle name. Daisy is also named after Christine Gyllenskog. Her name of course references Christ. It is faith in Christ that brought my girls (including Nadine) into my life.
The girls and parents are adjusting to their new lives and schedules. I am going to go hold them now

I hope Nadine is resting comfortably and recovering well. It's hard work to "hold" two babies for 35 weeks and 4 days! I'm glad you get to hold them now too! Enjoy!
