The Twins have Arrived.....

Tyler Thomas Dickson and Julie Joan Dickson arrived today at about 1:15pm and 1:30pm. Wow! What a delivery! Julie was first and pretty much shot right out. Tyler.... He was a different story, to make a long story short, it took the doctors about 15 minutes to work him out. (If you want to hear the entire story, let me know, its pretty crazy). As soon as he was born, they wisked him away to make sure everything was ok. He is doing ok, but it currently in NICU, due to his lungs being a little under developed. He will probably have to spend a few extra days in the NICU, but hopefully will be home by the weekend.

Julie was 18.5 inches long and weighed in at 4lbs 10oz. Tyler was 19 inches long and weighed in at 5lbs even. The both look like their brother and sister, just skinnier! I can't believe how tiny they are, but together, it was almost 10lbs of baby.

Stephanie is doing awesome, she was such a trooper, she was great in the delivery room, even when things wern't going as planned. She is such a great mother!

Congradulations you two! I'm happy that they are here. For having two babies they came out weighing pretty darn good! Janica was 3 weeks early and weighed 3lbs 11oz. I'm glad all went well. Now your new journey begins with twins!
