I picked up Sherryl at the airport in SF @ 4pm on Sunday from her trip to London.....she had a few pains and wanted to stop off at the Walnut Creek hospital.

At 1st they just dismissed it as normal pregnacy stuff and figured they'd admit her for a 24 hours to play it safe...well at 7pm they checked her out and she was dialated to 2cm....the shots they gave to relax and ease the pain didn't do too much and at 9pm, they checked her again and she was fully dialated to 10cm...off to have an emergancy cecerian(sp??)...



Jan. 1 2006 was a great day for Sherryl and I, we have been blessed with twin girls on this day.

9:11[\i] pm for Taylor Michael Mueller (2 pounds, 6 ounces, 15 inches long) and at [i]9:12 pm Kennady Christine Mueller (2 pounds, 3 ounces, 15 inches long)

both girls are doing fine, however they are 2 1/2 months too early so they will be staying in the hospital for at least 2 months

sherryl is doing fine except that she has a cold so she has only been able to see her babies once, we expect her to get released on Wed or thur. , I on the other hand go visit them every few hours, it's hard not to bust out in tears holding thier little hands and hearing them cry...I have been at the hospital since Sunday and I just came home for a few hours...I will attempt to go to work later this week, but belive me, my hours there will be very limited.

Mike,

I'm so happy for you.
congratulation and please share my warmest wishes with Sherryl!

brant

Awesome!!!!!!
Congrats, what a precious sight!!!!

I *just* read your blog. Mike, I'm so happy for you and Sherryl!!! What hospital are you guys living at nowadays?

Have you got colors picked out yet for the girls? It's club tradition that I knit little baby blankets for them (ask Britain). Ask mommy what color she'd like.

What a wonderful new year present!!!

Jen

Way cool. Congratulations. Girls are trouble though.
Thats a great thing to happen New Years though. Wonderful.

I'm glad to hear your good news.

We need a cigar smiley.

Congratulations, Mike and Sherryl! 22+ years ago my wife and I had twin boys at about that degree of prematurity, and they grew up happy and healthy... after 3 mo's in the hospital... Hearing them cry is a GOOD thing.. that means they don't need to be on a respirator...

Things are lookin' up for 2006!

Say hello to parenthood, say goodbye to sleep! Congratulations to the FOUR of you!
Better get that teener on the road so you'll have room in the garage to work on the next one. At the rate you get project cars done, you're gonna have a tough time finishing up 2 before they're old enouigh to drive .......... LOL, The Cap'n

Congrats and take care of the wife...she did most of the work...

Congratulations!!

Congrats Mike

Don't worry about premies, my daughter was 3 lbs 2 oz and handled 2 months in the hospital no problem...

They only worry about sub 1 lb babies.

Wow,

Miracles never cease.

See Mike,

All you need to do is come over and work on my car more often and small miracles will happen in your life. =-))))

Congratulations to all four of you!

All the best,
Roger

Seems like just yesterday we heard she was pregnant.... oh how the time passes

thanks....just got a call from Sherryl (I'm at home right now)...Kaiser (the hospital) is telling her we have no insurance or coverage, Sherryl is at the hospital freaking out and we are trying to get ahold of our HR person at work........got to stay focused and try to be positive....

Congrats, hope the insurance thing works out.

Glad she didn't have the babies on the plane

Richard

FANTASTIC!
I had two different friends deliver babies a week apart at 26 weeks and both kids are now bigger than my daughter who is 5 months older than them.

hope the insurance thing works out.

Congrats to you and your wife.

The best years are ahead.

Congrats!

Welcome to the hardest job you'll ever love.

This is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't think of a better way for you to start 2006 than with these little ones!

2006 -- the year of Mueller?

Twin girls! Well there goes the last of your hair

Congratulations!!!!
It's good to hear that everyone is doing well. We wish for nothing but the best for the Mueller gang as you start down this new path. Of course we also wish for sleep for the Meuller gang, but that ain't gonna happen for awhile!

Ubercongrats from Me and Julie!

Sounds like you have a bad case of insurancitis.

Hope it all works out, but if it doesn't we're here for ya!

Congratulations Mike! Your life will never be the same! Good luck, especially during the next couple of months - and thank God for modern medicine and neonatal care!

Demick

Congrats!

Mike,

wow..insurance worked out

appearently we are in the clear, mis-communication between our broker and Kaiser...what a relief...I know these 2 little cuties are going to cost me plenty of money in the future, but let it be something like thier own 914's

Holy cow Mike, that is awesome!! Congrats to all of you.

Congrats!
