introducing evelyn & elizabeth

My BFF Robin from college and her husband Joe welcomed their identical twin baby girls last Friday 5/6 via Csection. Looks like it was just in time too, as Robin’s water broke when she was on the OR table being prepped! They got home from the hospital on Tuesday and I ran up to CT on Thursday for some pictures.

While I had all these great ideas in my head of poses I wanted to get, those didn’t happen. As soon as we got one baby settled, the other one started crying. And vice versa for the rest of the time I was there. So I worked fast and did what I could in little increments. And don’t even ask me who is who, cause I lost track about 10 minutes into shooting! So there very well may be a bunch of pictures of the same baby!!

Anyway, please welcome Evelyn Saiorse (pronounced sharesha like inertia, which means freedom in irish) and Elizabeth Morgan.

Evelyn was 6lbs, 6 oz and 18″

Elizabeth was 5lbs, 9 oz and 171/2″

And of course, the miracle baby himself, Eoin. All fashionable and stuff. So smiley for Aunt Beth. We figured we’d give Eoin his first chance to hold the babies. At first, it was okay. He was not amused. At all.

…and then it was time to go. I think it was at this point that Robin and I just looked at eachother and laughed. So, so glad this part of having twins is done for me and wishing Robin & Joe lots of luck! Having twins isn’t easy, but it sure is awesome and always an adventure!! So happy for all of you!!
