Our birthday - June 23rd

Hello world!!!
After 37 weeks growing in mummy's tummy we decided that we'd had enough and it was time to meet you all.
(Well actually Jacob was keen to enter the big wide world, but Sam was in no hurry).
NO - we are not identical.
YES - we are adorable!

Jacob - After a rushed trip to Dunedin (Daddy did drive quite fast - secretly I think he was hoping to be pulled over by a police officer so that he could say that Mummy was in labour and get away with speeding), I am proud to say that I was the first to arrive. I was born at 10.06am on June 23rd 2006, weighing 5lb 10oz.

Sam - I wasn't really that keen on leaving my comfy surroundings, despite the medical team trying to persuade me by pushing me down into a good position. Then when my heart rate dropped suddenly, everyone got a big fright and quickly took my mum into theatre and performed a caesarean so that I was born safely. I finally arrived at 10.59am on June 23rd 2006, weighing 61b 20z (I might be the younger brother, but I am the bigger brother!!!)
