Should have named one Cammie and one Camile,
Then you could have had twin Cams.

   Congratulations on the new arrivals! Glad all are well too! NOW, are you going for the standard diapers or the Super Duty Kevlar reinforced models? ??? ;D Those things might be asked to hold a pretty good load at times, you know? :D

It's a good thing you DIDN"T name them Cammie and Camile.  It would have been too tempting to hold them up in the air for a gratuitous photo.  People might take offense to you flaunting your dual overhead Cams.

Oh, and CONGRATS!!!

Congrdulations flybox they are mighty pertty babies :D. When i saw the time diffrence between the two, I knew what happened. My friends twins are now 9 months old as of yesterday and she delivered her first naturally and then the second one decided to go back north and not come down, so within the next hour or so she had to go in for a c-section. But she delivered 2 months early and babies were in nic u for 5 weeks but They are doing well. I'll have to post some pics when i get them, she had one girl oldest and one boy.  And  Good tid bit of advice, WHEN BABIES SLEEP DADDY AND MOMMY SLEEP. lol Take it easy Man and CONGRDULATIONS!!!!  ;) ;)

Awesome work Mom!  I hope the best for you too dad! 

FWIW: A great book, (more humor than info, and a great read for soon-to be dads) is "Be prepared, a practical handbook for new dads"

http://www.beprepared.net/

It is the outright funniest/factual book of all I have (and I "gots" some books  ;) )  I buy copies for all my friends that are expecting, and they are doing the same.  It is written like a 1950's field guide, (though done in 2006 iirc).    Good luck with those first few months, and good luck to Mom!  I hope the nursing goes well (if thats what she's doing).  If not I still wish the best.  Our second is due in 5 months...
