Mommy and daddy told us we were "eight years in the making".

Us

This is what we looked like under a microscope as blastocysts (five day old embryos).  We posed for this picture the day we were implanted into mommy's tummy.  Brenden is the bigger one and still is today.

Brenden

Here I am entering the world at Whidbey General Hospital in Coupeville, Washington.  I was born on December 6, 2002 at 8:15 a.m.  I weighed 7 lbs 6 ozs and was 20.5 inches long.  Watch out, here comes my brother!

Mommy & Us

"LET US OUTTA HERE"!  This is mommy at approx. 36-38 weeks.  She asked the doctor to take us out at 38 weeks.  Mommy gained about 70 lbs.

Bennett

Two minutes after my brother was born, at 8:17 a.m., I was being pulled out of mommy's tummy.  I weighed in at 5 lbs 7 ozs and was 18.5 inches long.  Since Brenden was up front in mommy's tummy, he was getting more nutrition.  That boy can still eat!
