Happy Birthday Luke and Hudson!!!!!!!

This is Brandon coming to you from Luke and Hudson's birthday party. It has been a long and exciting day. Luke was born at 12:50 pm and Hudson came shortly after him at 12:51 pm. These boys came out screaming louder than I thought was possible for something so little. Luke weighed in at 6 lb 2 oz and was 20 inches long. Hudson weighed in at 4 lb 14 oz and was 18 inches long. Needless to say Luke was hogging all the meals in Suzie's belly.







Then after they were all measured and cleaned up they were able to hang out with each other again. I snapped this picture below in what was one of the few times Luke (on the left) had his eyes open today. I walked over and discovered them looking at each other and holding each others hand. What a great pic!

Then after we went back to our room we have had tons of family and friends all wanting to celebrate Luke and Hudson's birthday. Here are some pics from the rest of the birthday celebration.

Here is B-B (Suzie's mom, her other nephews call her that so our boys will too). The boys were so excited to meet her and can't wait to be spoiled even more than they already are from B-B.

Here are my parents (Grandma and Grandpa for now) since these are the first two grandkids in our family. My sister Sarah is having her boy Baby Carter in January. Those are some proud grandparents and also have already spoiled Luke and Hudson as well.
And finally here are the official birthday party pics. My mom made a cookie cake and brought all the party favors. Luke and Hudson were pretty tired from their eventful day but we made sure they celebrated with us.



Ok I better go it's time for another feeding, or should I say try and feed. Thanks everyone for all the emails and texts. Until my next blog.....See ya Brandon, Suz, Luke and Hudson.

  6. Whoo-Hoo!

    Life is a party and what could possibly be a greater reason to celebrate than the arrival of two healthy new lives?

    Way to do it up big in the traditional Van Sickle manner!
