These beautiful little girls were born around noon on May 1 2008, the national day of prayer, May day, and their birthday. They only weighed 1 lb 12 oz when they were born. There have been people all over the world praying for them and us, and we have truly felt them. Thank you all, and please continue during these next few months as they have a long row to hoe, but they are fiesty and strong.
here is Kamryn Renee in the pink hat
The next two are Taylor Elyse- notice my wedding ring on her left arm. Tiny and sweet.

In Labor
Kerri is now in active labor, and we are awaiting delivery. The epidural has been installed incase of c-section with Kamryn. Taylor, at least, should be able to be delivered vaginally. Thanks for all your prayers. Pray the babies will be strong enough to make it being only 25 weeks in gestation. They look good, though. Kerri is doing well and is calm. We will post again after they deliver, which will probably be today.

labor scare
Kerri and I have been traveling to Orlando the last week or so, taking our time along the way. we saw some friends in south MS, then went on to Destin and stayed a few days there before going on to Orlando. I went on to Miami to work with the MAC offices for a week or so this past Sunday. Kerri called me Tuesday night from the hospital and said she was dialated 3-4cm and i needed to come. She was put on magnesium to try and stop labor, which seemed to work okay. She was then transported to another hospital better equipped for 25wk neonatal care. This morning her water ruptured, and we were worried that the babies would be here today. We sent prayer requests to everyone we knew, and we really felt the prayers literally coming from around the world, which was an overwhelming feeling in a good way. The contractions stopped and the fluid leakage stopped for a while. They have continued since, but slightly. The babies have done really well, and seem to be fighters, we just wish they'd be a little more patient. We are told that the next couple of days should tell us more. The rupture could heal on its own, which we're hoping and praying for. If not, we could be delivering in the next couple of days. Please keep us in your prayers, and we will try and update with any developments.
