Things that Make You Say "Aww" . . .

My nephew and his wife gave birth to twin girls on July 26th.  They were big girls -- 7 lbs. 6 oz. and 6 lbs. 14 oz. at birth.  Twins run in their mother's family.  Both of the maternal grandparents are twins.  But I cannot recall any twins in my immediate line.

With the permission of Violet and Isabel's parents, I want to share these newest members of the Jones family.


The two girls were welcomed into a home that had a big brother, Quentin.



They definitely seem to be happiest together -- after all, they aren't strangers to each other.

Have you ever been in a situation where one yawn seemed to lead to another?  So have they.



So welcome to the family, Violet and Isabel.  You've been born into a great one!

Great Aunt Kath

  1. Congratulations on the new members of your family! One of my daughters gave birth to twins- a boy and a girl almost 8 years ago. We have so many photos of them laying together, laying on top of each other, around each other. Yours look so new!

  3. Congratulations - they are gorgeous! And fancy having both maternal grandmothers as twins - do you have photos of "Twins Down the Generations"?

  4. Susan,
    No, I don't -- but that sounds like a great idea.
