Everyone is doing very well! They are in a recovery room now where they will stay for the next few days. Please continue to pray that things stay well. They are all very tired and ready for sleep.
I have a bit more information about the c-section, as well. Abbey's heart rate apparently got pretty high while Luke was coming. After he was out, the OB tried to maneuver Abbey into the right position, but it just wasn't working, and Abbey's heart rate started to get low. They decided to do the c-section. Kendra needed to be put under as opposed to just increasing her epidural because the heightened epidural didn't kick in fast enough and they needed to get Abbey out quickly.
Whew. SO, there you have it. Things were a bit tense for awhile, but the important thing is that all is well now :)
Sorry that it's not more detailed. I'm sure Kendra will provide a much more complete story when she can blog again.
Also, we know their lengths now! Luke is 20.5 inches and Abbey is 19.5 inches. So, even though he outweighs her by nearly 2 pounds, she's a tall little girl (especially for her weight).
Both of the babies have hair! Luke's is pretty dark, but Abbey's is pretty light and looks like it will be curly!
Sorry these updates aren't very detailed/fluid. Thank you for being patient and bearing with us as updates trickle in. Kendra will be much more thorough when she starts blogging again :)
And finally, here are some more pictures:
Aren't they just precious?!
