Hi, all. The twins were born on Tuesday, March 8th at around 8:40 am. They were seven minutes apart. The first, Coble Alexander Hartman, weighed 6 lbs. 3 oz. The second, Kellen Andrew Hartman weighed 5 lbs. 1 oz. They’re both healthy. Carol Anne and I both had grandparents who passed away before their marriage. “Coble” is named for her grandfather’s last name (her maiden name). “Kellen” is named (with a male twist) after my grandmother “Helen.” Carol Anne did awesome. She was only in labor a few hours. No “C” section had to be done. Carol Anne gets to come home with the twins on Thursday, which happens to be her birthday. Kellen’s been a lil’ cold and low on blood sugar, so I don’t have many pics of him. He’s had to stay in the nursery most of the time. Carol Anne and I don’t think they’re identical twins, but we won’t know until they get older. I will be neutered on Monday.
