Most of you know our little twin girls decided to come unexpectedly on June 11 at only 28 weeks of gestation. I guess they couldn't wait any longer to meet us. It all happened so fast and within four hours of arriving at the hospital the girls were both here via emergency c-section. So we welcomed our little ladies with so much excitement and fear all at the same time. They are Renna Ann Laughlin whose is affectionately called Baby A, she weighed 2 lbs. 15 oz. and is 15 inches long. Reagan Kate followed one minute after and is our little Baby B, weighing 2lbs. 10 oz. They are both still in the Neonatal ICU but are hanging in there. They sure are tough little girls! We have had our share of ups and downs with problems as they try to incubate in the NICU, but overall we have been very blessed that they are doing so well. We are creating this blog to keep everyone updated on their progress. This is my very first attempt at blogging so be patient with me. We want to thank everyone for all of their prayers and the outpouring of love and support we have had from friends, family, and people we don't even know. God has definitely blessed us in many ways. We will keep everyone posted on their progress and our trials. Please continue the prayers.

Our prayers are truly with you as we went throught this 22 years ago with our twin boys. Charlie and Michael were born at 30 weeks, weighing in at about 3 lbs ea. They are strapping young men now: Michael, a Mech. Eng. major at TX Tech, and Charlie, Senior Acct major at Oklahoma Christian. All that OXYGEN makes smart brain cells. Hang in there! GREAT times are ahead:) Love, Janie Baucum (Janice's sis-in-law)
