April 6th, 2011 - The moment we were waiting for has finally come. Three little ones, so anticipated, have now come into the world.
At just 34 weeks and 4 days, Kristner Zane, Ashlynn Presley and Hunter Thomas are all doing great.
It was an amazing experience when Melissa and Mom got to be in the delivery room for the special occasion. Melissa got to go immediately with the babies while Mom stayed with me for a bit. They both had a senior moment when they got caught up in the moment and forgot to begin taking pictures of Kristner, as the first to come. Mom got to go see the babies shortly after while they patched me up. It was a few hours later when I finally got to see my precious ones.
Kristner at 12:58 pm, 4 lbs 1 oz, 16.5’’
Ashlynn 1:00 pm, 4 lbs 3 oz, 17.5’’
Hunter at 1:01 pm, 4 lbs 6 oz, 16.5’’
With Ashlynn staying well ahead of the boys during most of the pregnancy, she is the healthiest without needing much oxygen and is feeding right away. Both boys are on oxygen but doing amazingly well. Kristner is a little behind with maintaining on his own but not by far and is catching up.
Ashlynn and Hunter are dark haired beauties while Kristner is blonde as can be. Their eyes seem to sparkle the short time they are open.

Day 2 brought more joy as we finally got to hold Ashlynn, the healthiest of them all. We also had the added joy of changing two of the baby’s diapers and holding the feeding tube for two feedings and take their temperatures.
We like to thank everyone for the prayers, well-wishes and visits. It’s amazing how much love and support has been shown by everyone. We love you all.
