Finn and Luca together again at last in a shared crib.

Finn and Luca together again at last in a shared crib.

Luca Carson and Finnegan Walker werre born on November 29th, 2008. They came into the world early at 30 weeks and 5 days, due to a concern with B’s cord insertion and signs of Mom’s preeclampsia. Despite being identical twins, Luca was 3 lbs 8oz and Finnegan was 2lbs 4oz. Both boys have had their challenges and both parents have had their scares, but we’re now counting down to when we can bring our preemies home from the NICU.

As the popular saying goes, “write the book you want to read.” Ever since we found out we were expecting twins, we’ve consumed content from all corners: books, blogs, the local twins club, etc. Not only are we twin parents for the first time, we’re first-time parents- and we figure there’s at least a handful of people online who share at least one of those descriptions with us. Learning what we’ve learned, and experiencing what we’ve experienced has been an amazing story so far, and we look forward to what unfolds for many years to come. And we’d like to share this story with others.
