This morning at 12:45 a.m. and 12:51 a.m. Victoria (aka [livejournal.com profile] jeprdyfrndly) gave birth to identical twin girls, Angela Lily Lyton, 5 pounds 6 ounces, and 17.5 inches long and Krystina Iris Lyton, 5 pounds 4 ounces, and 17 inches long.  They kept with Victoria's family tradition of naming female twins with first names ending in A and Peter's family tradition of all females having a middle name that is a flower.  She was able to deliver naturally and both babies are breathing on their own, despite being born at just over 35 weeks gestation.

I can't see them yet because of the bronchitis, but Peter texted me a photo and they are the cutest things.  They have lots of blonde hair and dark blue eyes (which will likely change to green as they get older since both Victoria and Peter have green eyes).

They are worried about jaundice and are keeping Angie and Krysti in the neonatal intensive care unit for a few days to be on the safe side.

So glad to hear they are all okay. And those are some good-sized twins for being a month+ early - I weighed the same and was full term! Congrats to everyone!

It's so good to hear that they got here ok and that Victoria is recovering from the birth. Glad to hear that they're starting out at a reasonable weight and good lungs, too, I know that's a major scare with preemies especially.

Hope the intensive care gives them time to catch up a bit more so that they're well and safe and there aren't any more scares.

Hope you get to see them in person soon, and give Victoria my best wishes.

Very exciting news! Their eyes will probably stay blue - the blue is a recessive that they
both carry.
