The arrival




















At 5pm on April 25th, the double pounders made their grand debut. Colton weighed in a 3lb 10oz and was 16 in long and Sulley is longer and leaner at 3lb 9oz and 17.25in long. Mom is doing great and will have the epidural removed soon and will be able to visit them in the NICU. Both are doing great and no longer need any assistance breathing, which is amazing! We expect them to be in the NICU for about 4 weeks and Laura will be in the hospital for 3-4 more days.

The Scanlons are so excited that Colton and Sulley are here. Luke and Hannah couldn't be happier about the outcome of a boy for Luke and a girl for Hannah. Zach is happy too, in that disinterested teenager way!
