Caleb and Zachary dressed alike for the first time. These outfits are from Titi (Aunt) Irin.

Michael made this video of the twins and their siblings. Enjoy!

Big News! Ryan called me last night and said he proposed to Kim! They plan to be married late winter of 2009. More news later as it is received. Kim will be a wonderful addition to our family. We love her!

All the Nieves children left to right: Sydnee, Caleb, Isaac, Zachary and Joshua. Yesterday at the doctor, Caleb weighed 5 lb. 7 oz. and Zachary weighed 5 lb. 9 oz. so they are doing well. By the way, we have another grandchild on the way. David and Cambria are expecting their 2nd child around the end of May. So the blessings keep coming!

 For some reason I couldn't download a video on my blog from my daughter's computer, but here is a picture of Caleb and Zachary in outfits from my sister Dana. Pictures don't do them justice. Maybe if I had Courtney's talent! They are so adorable.

I'm having a great time in South Carolina with my daughter and her five kids! The babies are darling, of course. As soon as Caryn and Michael get the internet I will post some pictures and/or videos of the babies, etc. Right now I'm at my son-in-law's sister's house so I can check all my email and post some news. All is going well. Check again here for the further adventures of the Nieves Family! Love to all!

Caryn and babies got to all go home today. Both boys are eating well from a bottle since they are still too little to latch on. Meanwhile, Caryn keeps pumping so they can have her milk as much as possible. They've also had to supplement with formula to keep their blood sugar up. When I called, both babies were sleeping. I wonder how often that will happen!! I'm excited to go see all five of my grandchildren on Friday.

Joyful mother of twin boys. Here Caryn is holding Caleb.

I've made lots of phone calls, sent lots of emails, posted on facebook, so I guess the only place left is here on my blog for everyone else. Caryn and Michael's twins arrived this afternoon. Caleb was born first, weighing in at 5 lb. 3 oz. Zachary came six minutes later and weighed 5 lb. 7 oz. Both are 19 inches long. Zachary is in intensive care for know because of a circulation problem but should be fine. Please pray for him though. Both their middle names are Michael after their father, which is tradition in his family. No pictures yet because it just happened, but Caryn says they look exactly alike. Of course!
