Welcome to Daniel and Emma
















Well, they have arrived! Emma was born first at 08:54 and Daniel at 08:56. Both are well. as a precaution, Emma is in ICU under observation as she weighs 1.78kg. Daniel weighs 2.16 kg. Daniel suckled on a bottle for a few sucks before refusing to carry on - he may need time to develop the sucking reflex, as will Emma. seems they'll still be in hospital for a week or two.

Fiona is holding Daniel who has quite a lot of vermix on him and has blonde fuzz. Emma has no vermix and has dark hair.
Here are the pictures minutes after the were born:







































Such a priviledge to witness such an event and to be able to have two children.
