Welcome Twins Sydney and Hudson!

Our ward's newest parents tell a delightful story about their first outing in the car with the new family. At one week old, it was time for Sydney and Hudson’s first weigh-in at the doctor’s office. Two babies are fed and changed and dressed and wrapped and loaded into car seats… car seats are laboriously strapped into the car (as properly as humanly possible for first-time parents on a first outing), followed by more blankets, and the trip has begun. What could they have possibly forgotten?! Reports Austin, “The nurse had a funny look on her face when she held out her hand for a clean diaper and we realized that with all that baggage and effort, we had not brought a single extra diaper!” Giselle and Austin were, however, well prepared for yesterday's 2-week check-up!

Thank you to the sisters who brought food during Sydney and Hudson's first week of life. After some detailed discussion with her, Giselle’s visiting teachers have asked if the ward sisters could continue to bring in meals to the family for a short while longer. Since we are honored to be helpful to this lovely family, we say yes! The clipboard with sign-up spots will be passed around in Relief Society on 1.13.13, but call Amy W. in case there are opportunities remaining.
