DOMINIC and ZAXEN


The twins are here!! They were born on August 7, 2007. Dominc Steven Downey weighed 5 pounds 4 ounces and was 19 inches long. Zaxen Robert weighed 5 pounds 3 ounces. The boys were born 5 weeks early so they had to stay in the newborn intensive care unit for almost 4 weeks before we could bring them home. We were so excited when we finally got to bring them home.

KALI


Kali just turned 5 in September. She is our little angel, and such a good big sister. She loves helping mom with her two new little brothers.

Family Picture

Here is our most current family picture. Which we had pretty much doubled our family since then. We are hoping to get a new famiy picture taken soon with our boys in it.

Daddy and his Boys


Daddy is so proud of his boys!! Derek had been on cloud 9 since his we found out in our ultra sound that we were having twin boys. I think he is the proudest dad is the whole world.

Lexi


Lexi is our little "dancing princess." She will be turning 3 in December. She loves playing dress-ups, and dancing like a princess. She also love playing with her princess dolls. She is extremely girly and soft, but also has a very fiesty side. She is such a joy in our home.

Best Buddies

Kali and Lexi are such great buddies!! They have just become the best of friends. They had their faces painted in June at the Orem Summerfest.

Kali's Cheerleading Performance

Kali in Septmeber did a cheer camp at Orem High School, and she got to perform at the Orem High football game during half time. She did a dance to "High School Musical" which is her favorite show right now.

Kalis Birthday



For Kalis 5th birthday her Grandma and Grandpa Downey took her and her cousin Carsen to the circus. As you can tell Kali loves to be silly.

Jenn had the twins!

We just wanted to let everyone know that the twins were born on the 7th of August. They were both about 5 lbs 4 oz. And they are adorable. Jenn is doing great, she left the hospital the next day, and was out working in the yard a week later. The boys are named Dominic and Zaxen. They are still in the hospital and will be for the next few days, as they were born a 5 weeks early. They are healthy and it is very common for twins to stay in the hospital. Kali is excited about having little brothers and getting to help her mom. While Lexi isn't too sure about what is going on, and she has been acting up a little, but still perfect.



We will be getting some pictures up of the boys right away. This is our first post, so it may take a bit to get the hang of this, stay tuned...
