In Action

This is about as much action as you will get out of them at this point, but Steph and I thought it was a cool picture to share.

Everybody is still doing great. The boys gained some weight last night and Steph perfected the double feed. Which makes for our time up in the middle of the night much easier.

We are heading home tomorrow. I am sure we will have more to share then.

Hello Cleveland!

Well we have two very healthy baby boys!

Graham Owen (5 lbs 11 oz, 18 in) (Left)
Nole Carter (4 lbs 6 ozs, 17 in) (Right)



The delivery went great and the boys will not have to spend any time in the NICU. Steph delivered by C-Section and it went pretty fast. In fact, dad almost missed the whole thing.

Mom and Dad are hanging there too. Steph is resting, but recovering quickly. Sleep on the other hand is going to be a challenge. It is an endless dance of eat, diaper change, sleep, repeat...



The boys are doing really well. They are eating great and enjoying all of the visitors. They even got to meet their big sister yesterday! More on that to come soon.

Today is the Day

Time to get this thing fired up again!

THE TWINS ARE ON THE WAY!

Steph is scheduled for a C-Section at 7:30 tonight at Fairview Hospital. Come on down... should be a good party.

My intent is to keep this thing updated with new pictures, stats and all that good stuff. But given my track record, we will see. Who know maybe these two little guys will give us inspiration.

BOYS!

Steph and I found out this week that the twins are BOYS! At first we were a bit shocked, but that has worn off and we are truly excited. It will be a big change going from sweet little Hadley to two boys in the house that is for sure. Just to be safe we have safely put away all of the china in an effort to prepare for them.

The boys are both healthy and continuing to grow. We will be sure keep everyone updated on the progress. Now the hard part… Picking names! Now I love Stephanie from the bottom of my heart, but she is a bit on the indecisive side. This is going to be like pulling teeth. So I am going to throw out some suggestions to get the ball rolling:

Larry & Balki Kutsko

Norm & Cliff Kutsko

Harry & Lloyd Kutsko

Bert & Ernie Kutsko

Sherlock & Watson Kutsko

Tom & Jerry Kutsko

Tonto & The Lone Ranger Kutsko

Hansel & Zoolander Kutsko

Michael Knight & Kitt Kutsko

Dean & Jerry Kutsko

Simon & Garfunkel Kutsko

Axl & Slash Kutsko

Ben & Jerry Kutsko

Spongebob & Patrick Kutsko

Shaggy & Scooby Kutsko

Snoopy & Woodstock Kutsko

Spck & Kirk Kutsko

Cheech & Chong Kutsko

Captain & Tenille Kutsko

Forest & Bubba (or Lieutenant Dan) Kutsko

Gumby & Pokie Kutsko

Captain Kangaroo & Mr. Green Jeans Kutsko

Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid Kutsko

Michael Dean & William Kutsko

Sean provided a list as well:

Bill & Ted Kutsko
Hanford & Frank Kutsko
Kevin & Earnest Kutsko
Tomax & Xamot Kutsko (Those twin brothers on G.I. Joe who felt each other's pain and finished each other's sentences)
Jack & Bobby Kutsko
Mario & Luigi Kutsko
Romulus & Remus Kutsko
Alec & Billy Kutsko
Hall & Oates Kutsko
Alex & Chad Wagner Kutsko (Jean-Claude Van Damme's twin characters in Double Impact)
Charlie & Emilio Sheen Estevez Kutsko
Matt & Gunnar Kutsko
Other badass names: Snake Eyes Kutsko, Tyler Durden Kutsko, Weapon X Kutsko, Jaguar Paw Kutsko

Those are all great suggestions, but let’s be honest, I am pulling for Bernie & Kosar Kutsko! We will see if Steph agrees.

Sledding

Back when we had snow on the ground we had a nice family outing to the Westlake sledding hill. It was a real good time. Hadley was a bit unsure about the whole thing, but slowly got a hang of it. Next up - Skiing. I will be sure to post photos (and maybe a video) of that if it happens.




P.S. Since Aunt Nicholl is the only one that I know who waits by her computer to read this thing, here is a photo for you.

Back From The Dead!

We are the worst bloggers on the planet! It has been since Thanksgiving since we updated this thing and let me tell you there has been a lot going on the the world of the Kutsko's. Steph has just been too busy to keep this updated, so I am going to try my best. We will see how it goes...

The big news (which I am sure everyone knows by now) is that I grew a beard and let my hair grow. I think that it is going to be a good look for me. Only time will tell. Oh and we are having Twins.

That's right folks TWINS! Steph and I are looking forward to the gangs arrival on August 10th (my money is on earlier if anyone wants to start taking bets). Steph is doing well with no issues. I have total faith in her that she is going get through this like a champ. She is the strongest person I know. We will keep everyone posted with information and pictures.

Thanksgiving Weekend

A much needed nap after Thanksgiving weekend. (Thanks to Grandma Lindquist for making my new cozy blanket!)

Hadley's got a sweet tooth like her Grandpa, she loved the pumpkin pie and Reddi Wip

Off to Kristen's to celebrate Thanksgiving with the Beck's and Kutsko's. Thanks to Grissy and Laura for the new books and holiday outfits, and thanks to Kristen for having us all.

She loves her dogs, I wonder where she gets that from?
