What a day!
2008 July 18
The twins have arrived!
Zoey resting in the NICU
Stella exhausted after a long day
Zoey Isabelle Dettbarn arrived at 3:23pm today, weighing 4lbs 13oz. Stella Elizabeth Dettbarn arrived 3:35pm, weighing 4lbs 11oz. Amazingly exciting, happy and terrifying all at once. I’ll fill in more detail later, since it is kind of late and I am beat… but it was a long day.

More coming soon. The real adventure begins now!
Thanks for all the well wishes and notes. We really appreciate the thoughts and support from all of our friends and family. It really means a lot to both of us!
(And Melisa is resting and doing well. I’m sure she’ll sleep good tonight!)
The girls are beautiful! I know how scary it must have been, so I’m so happy to hear everyone is doing well. Congratulations again! Please, please call us if you need anything! (Twin advice or otherwise!)
They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Congrats to both of you! Lucy, you are a BIG sister…can you believe it?
Can’t wait to snuggle those cutie pies!
Great Grandma and Aunt Michelle are very proud of all of you and glad everyone is safe and healthy. You have a beautiful family and can not wait to visit. Lucy don’t forget we love you “to much”.
