After a serendipitous turn of events, the twin nurses at Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center in Athens, Georgia were able to deliver Addison and Emma Williams on September 25.
Brannan Williams, the father of the newborns, said he was happy to hear there would be twins in the delivery room (in addition, of course, to his own).

I LOVE babies when they're still in the newborn larval stage. They're so darned cute. nt

kind of buggy-looking, like, as you said, larva. For me, it takes a few weeks before they enter the cute stage.
A minister once told the congregation that when they were expecting, he prayed not just that mom & baby would be okay, but that God would him with a sense of wonderment about the baby. He said he always thought they were kind of ugly!

referred to as the fourth trimester, since human newborns come out of the oven distinctly undercooked.
