Last night Maddy started having contractions every 2-6 minutes, so the nurse called our doctors and said it was time to go have some babies! Todd hadn't eaten in 8 hours, so he told Madelyn and the nurse that no kids were being born until he ate the sandwich he just made. It turned out to be a great sandwich! Afterwards, we went to Labor and Delivery and the babies were born about 10pm on Tuesday, September 25th. The first one was a boy and named Dylan Jacob King. The second one out was a girl and named Kiera Jane King.
Dylan weighed 5lbs 9oz and was 17 inches long. Kiera weighed 5lbs 6oz and was 17 1/2 inches long. Both are doing great and were able to bypass the NICU and go straight to the nursery - a huge accomplishment for premature singletons or any twins.
Madelyn is doing great. She's enjoying not being confined to bed rest as she has been for the past month and a half.

Yippee! We can't wait to see them, either. I love the names, by the way.
Beautiful babies with beautiful names!!! We're SO excited for you guys.
Congratulations Todd & Matty. This is great news. I had been thinking about y'all and wondering how everything was going. Well, now I've got my answer. I am sure that Matty is happy that the babies are here and that she is off of bed rest. What a blessing. A boy and a girl.
Love, Angie Rodriguez
