One Weekend, Two Babies!

Well, talk about a great weekend! We had 2 nephews born almost exactly 36 hours apart! First, Benjamin Stephen Summer, born on Saturday 12/10 at 2:57pm, weighing 8 lbs. 7 oz. and 21.5" long. He was a week early, but planned to be born on Saturday, so his arrival was expected. He is doing great and big brother and sister adore him! His cousins, not so sure (actually, Anna is sure how she feels about him):

Then, on Sunday night, Aunt Maria went into labor! She was not due for 2 more weeks and was totally surprised, but Cole Joseph Ambrosini was born on Monday 12/12 at 3:33am, weighing 6 lbs. 10 oz. and 21" long and perfectly healthy. He too is doing great, and happy to be home today!

So, that meant 2 trips to Concord/Charlotte in 2 days, since we had already seen Ben on Sunday and come back before Dale and Maria went in to the hospital to have Cole that night. Throw a stomach bug in the mix, and it was a wild few days! We are so excited and happy for everyone. They are both super adorable and so sweet!

Oh, man. I love that picture with Anna. Both babies are adorable! And I'm glad you survived the drives and the stomach bugs. Sounds like you all might need a nap :)

Well it's not as good of a story but Ben was born at 2:57pm. Erin's Christmas party looked like fun!
