A brief announcement

[vicioussweetie]

I would like to welcome Donovan Ambrose and Cateline Dory into the worlds. They are as perfect and beautiful as I could ever imagine. I can only hope I shall be a suitable mother for two children so destined for greatness. I know you all understand why I have to limit visitors for the first few days. This is family time

I am pleased to confirm their tiny perfection, and to join you in their welcome.

[vicioussweetie]

Have you counted their toes yet?

[chill_whispers]

Twice. Once in each direction, for each is more perfect than the last.

[vicioussweetie]

Think that can keep the three of you occupied while I try and take a nap?

[oh_what_a_story]

Welcome to the world, little guys! I'm gonna teach you so many stories!

[vicioussweetie]

I'm sure they're looking forward to it. Everybody needs a rock-n-roll auntie.

[oh_what_a_story]

They really do!

But for now, quiet lullabies.

[vicioussweetie]

For all three of us, I hope?

Congratulations, Ali. If there's anything I can help with, I'm only a word away. And I look forward to meeting the twins, when they're ready for people.

[vicioussweetie]

In three days, show up with chocolate ice cream and a sleeping pill.

[onemorebounty]

Chocolate ice cream and a sleeping pill?

...any specifics about the pill?

[vicioussweetie]

Chocolate ice cream and a sleeping pill. Something mild, just enough to keep me down for a decent night's sleep. By the end of the next three days I should be both exhausted and able to have bottles in the fridge to keep the babies happy while I sleep.

Congratulations to all three of you!

Should I be working from a distance for the next little while?

[vicioussweetie]

You'll have to stay in the office for a little while. We don't want to expose the babies to too many germs while their immune systems are still developing.

[alto_familiar]

No, we really don't. The office it is, and anyone who wants an appointment can book for January.

[vicioussweetie]

So soon?

[almost_adonis]

Congratulations, Mom! Hi, there, little guys, I'm your big brother, and in a few years you're gonna read this and get confused. Sorry.

[vicioussweetie]

Thanks darling.

Do you remember helping me decorate the nursery for them?

[almost_adonis]

I remember making handprints with paint... I'm not sure if it was in the nursery.

[vicioussweetie]

It was. You didn't want to move into your "big-boy" room, so you decided to leave your mark on the nursery.
