READY OR NOT...

5:30 am is awful early to be this happy and look this beautiful! Full of excitement for our new adventure!  This is the last authorized belly photo!

I took this opportunity to sport some new digs!  They're not as flattering as one might think.  I wish I could say this is the last authorized belly photo for me!  But enough about us, here's the debut of the Goddard twins.  Notify the authorities, the twinvasion has begun!

Introducing Grayson Michael Goddard born (promptly) at 8:00 am.  We wish we could say punctuality runs in the family!  As you can see, he is a big baby, especially for a twin.  He also measured 20 inches in length and really wishes we had brought his sun glasses!

Introducing Ava Rochelle Goddard, she was right behind her big brother and born at 8:01 am and measured 18 inches in length.  She's already a great non-verbal communicator, here she's saying "5 lbs 5 oz, what do you expect, Grayson was bogarting all the room, I'm just a normal sized twin!"     


Here we have the happy family that just doubled in size!

Here, brother and sister are getting acquainted with one another, as if to say, "so you're the one that's been kicking me in the head?"

Thank you to everyone for their prayers, kind thoughts, well wishes and congratulations!  We are firm believers that it really does take a village to raise a child and we hope you will be apart of our village!
