Welcome to the World!

Hi, this is Shelley's Mom - Penny McKinlay. I just had to share the good news with all of Brad and Shelley's great friends and family. The babies are HERE! They were born on Wednesday, May 27, 2009.



Chloe Mae arrived on the scene at about 4:50 p.m. She weighs 6 lb 3 oz. and is 19" long.



Sophie June was just thirteen minutes behind her sister, weighing in at 5 lb. 9 oz, and 18" long.




Mommy (Shelley) had a fabulous (if not the 'picture perfect') labor and delivery of twins. Everything went very well for mother and both babies!


Daddy (Brad) is watching over his three girls.



While Noah B is hoping to teach his shisters how to play ball right away!

We expect the girls to be arriving home sometime on Friday, May 29th.

  22. Oh, my children...you all have given birth to the two most gorgeous little girls on the planet...they are absolutely beautiful...everyone at school has oohed and aahed over them all day...and I have kept the blog up all day so I could just look at their pics. Can I just tell you how much I wish I were there right now...but it won't be long...so be ready to give them up! And there won't even be a fight over who gets to hold the baby--how nice will that be? We love you all so much!
