My mom's sister is married to my dad's brother.
No, it did not take place in West Virginia.
It was Pennsylvania, and as Garrett can tell you, well, it's Pennsylvania.

I have 6-week old identical twin girls. Here they are with their big sister:

Buy Tampax stock now and you'll all make out like bandits in a few years.

PS: d2dave, as long as they remain synchronized - eating and sleeping at the same time - they are really not much more work than single kids, really. If they go out of sync, watch out! Congratulations to you and the Mrs!

Make sure you get them on the same feeding cycle. If one wakes up wake up the other. It sounds cruel but if you don't you will be up all the time. Also put a writing pad in the kitchen and write every time you feed. It will keep you straight when you are tired and you won't double feed or feed to soon. We also kept them in the same crib for about 1-2 months they slept much better. Visit the hospital and prenatal unit if possible. We had ours at 33 weeks. Our girl came home in 10 days but our "WIMPY WHITE BOY" as the nurses call them spent 15 days. Good Luck and it is not that bad........:D
