Default Twins


We have twin grandsons!
Our son and his wife.
Not identical, but they look an awful lot alike.

Delivered on Tuesday morning just before 1am.

Brock at 6lbs 4oz on the right.
Reid at 6lbs 9oz on the left.
Both 21 inches tall.
About a month early but doing just fine.
That makes 3 boys and no girls much to my wife's dismay.
Does not look like the picture will come up, either webshots or the url.

Congratulations on the twin grandsons! As far as I can see they well be identical since if they are the same sex, they came from the same egg. Fraternal twins come from two different eggs that were fertilized at the same time.

You got it.
Two different eggs.
They each had their own little compartment.
One wanted out (water broke)and the other wanted to stay longer. Did not want to give up that warm resting place. Ended up with a c-section.

Ike, Congratulations to you and your family on your 2 newest members!
They are so sweet, and look very healthy and a good size for twins.
One month isn't too early, I was a month early and around 5 pounds and did okay.
