Welcome to the World, Chaz & Nolan!

It is with great pleasure that I announce the safe arrival of the Rayton twins!! Joy's water broke before 6PM last night and they were born shortly after 9PM!

Laura got to be there as Joy's support person until Danny got there in the knick of time from his flight out of Fort McMurray so she took those pictures on her phone and texted them to me when I was working my night shift last night. God Bless the power of technology - how precious! Joy and babes are doing well, babes are in NICU for some observation for awhile.

Laura and Joy (and me from what i can tell from the pics) think that Baby A looks a LOT like Danika as a newborn and that Baby B looks a LOT like Ray (their grandpa) and Jay. They might be identical, but they don't look like it to me right now.

Pics from Joy, her first time seeing the boys:

And here is beautiful Joy the day before (Saturday) that she had them:

Due to hospital policy we won't get to met these precious boys until they come home from the hospital which may be a week or two. Pray that they get home happy and healthy and for a quick recovery for Joy.

A Suprise for Joy!!

Well, lots has been going on lately...and when I have the energy to upload pictures...I'll post more. But the most exciting news by far is this:

Oh don't worry! Those aren't mine...they are Joy's TWINS!!!! I've known for awhile now that she was pregnant, but she went for an ultrasound last week and found out that there's 2 in there! I am so excited, I cannot put it into words! She was originally due January 13th, but full term twins is 38 weeks which would put here at the middle to end of December. It's so funny, cuz last weekend at the lake, Sam and I were talking about Joy's pregnancy and that she was due 2 days before when Sam was pregnant with Hannah. Then I pointed out that Joy's 2nd baby and Braden would be the only grandkids to share the same birthday month...unless she has twins and delivers in December - haha! Little did I know that statement would be true later in the week! She's just over 9 weeks pregnant, so please keep her in your prayers that she has 2 healthy twinsies.
