Pictures: Happy Birthday!

            These are pictures taken on our girls' birthday, March 27th, 2002.


Tatiana Leilani Crenshaw

Tatiana's first picture. She was 1 hour 37 minutes old when the picture was taken. She weighed just under 1 pound, 14 ounces and measured in at about 12.5 inches long.

Isn't she a cutie? She didn't seem to appreciate the tube in her mouth, but she needs it to help her breathe.

Natasha Kelani Crenshaw

Our other little blessing was just 1 hour 12 minutes old when this picture was taken. She's a fiesty little girl, weighing in at just over 1 pound, 14 ounces, a little bigger than her sister, and a little longer at about 13.5 inches long.

Natasha is a little ruddier than her sister, since she's the one who was receiving all of Tatiana's blood. Now she can get rid of the extra fluid and, hopefully, get better.

Now that she's had a chance to get cleaned up, she looks even better. She's a bit scrawny, but the nurses say that the "slimmer" babies often do quite well.

"I'm so tired. I've had a busy day."

Tatiana is almost six and a half hours old, here.

Once again, our little angel is resting. They've already been weaned off of some of the help they are getting to breathe.

"I've got a pacifier, already!"

At 6 hours, 14 minutes old, Natasha likes to suck on her fingers, but she doesn't quite have the coordination to keep them in her mouth for long. The nurses were able to give her a tiny pacifier that she likes to chomp down on from time to time.
