Well I'm a bit late in offering my congratulations, but better late than never I guess. So - congratulations!

I noticed one thing in your post that made me go 'hmmm'. When you were talking about the babies' sizes you said their weight in pounds, but their height in centimetres. I found that strange, especially coming from some in the US. We're a bit messed up here in Canada, we use metric, but still talk about our height and weight in feet and pounds, even for our babies. :) When my son was born, we got the height measurement in inches...

Anyways, just me rambling. Congratulations again, hope everyone is doing well. I've got lots of posts to catch up on so perhaps I'll get the answer to that question in subsequent posts.

We're not home yet. But we're still at the hospital, and yes, I do still have the scrubs. Want 'em?

Did you bring the scrubs home?

I will find a way. For this morning's post, I sat cross-legged, with Matthew across my lap, and had the laptop in front, which worked great. Then my foot fell asleep. :-)

I was willing to try anything. And after 24 hours, the A's shirt was getting annoying. :-)

Disqus for the win! (Under the blue scrubs of course)

I'm so ecstatic about you wearing your Disqus tee during such a moment. Congrats to you and the rest of the Gray family!

I hope Matthew and Sarah become big time geeks as well. :)

Double congratulations Louis. If you can master sending messages with one hand, this will likely add more late hours to your entries.

Congratulations!!

And funnily, the names you have chosen are the exact ones we had decided to name our kids when we discovered that my wife was pregnant. Well, we now have a Matthew in the house. No Sarah yet! :)

Oh I feel so terrible for posting late again! This is what happens when you're not on Twitter and don't religiously check feeds over weekends!

Congrats Louis! Very happy for you!

I probably already gave you congrats on FriendFeed, but if not, congrats! Glad to hear everybody is healthy and happy.

I love that rumor!! LOL!

I haven't yet received your package. We haven't been home since Friday, so I'll have to check in soon. No good having the mail overflow. But I do have both high expectations and high anticipations.

Thanks to you and "Mrs. Shyftr" for the kind comments. Many more updates to come.

Donald, I grew up with my best friends in the world being twins, and now my favorite kids in the world are twins too. So glad you'll always be a part of their lives, and ours.

Thanks, Chris. Lucky monkey? :-)

I'm glad to have learned of your experience, and I honestly tell you I'm not worried about them or the doctors here. Sarah's 4 pound 3 oz (now 4 lb 1 oz) weight was worrisome, but the hospital routinely takes on challenges half the size. We're hoping to provide more updates soon. The real fun has already begun.

Susan, your enthusiasm through this whole process has been fun to watch. Some great friends out there whom I've never met, but may some day! Happy to share the experience with you.

Thanks Yuvi. I look forward to your breaking down my posting behavior and online activity pre-kids and post-kids. Give it some time so I can amass some stats. :-)

Louis Gray — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 15:39:47 -0000

That's a good question. I haven't sprung for any accounts in their names, and don't think I will. BUT I do promise you that at 36 hours old, Matthew has already worn his Google onesie, and I have a few photos to prove it. Sharing soon.

Louis Gray — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 15:38:54 -0000

Thanks for the note - looking forward to all the good times, and knowing there will be bad intermixed. I'll try and remain transparent and active, so you can expect more!

Re: louisgray.com: The Gray Family Doubles Overnight. Welcome Matthew and Sarah!

Louis Gray — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 15:38:00 -0000

I thought you might like Sarah. :-)

I'm starting a rumor they were named after you and MG Siegler or Mathew Ingram.

Robert, I think you already know I've made sleep a non-essential element, but now we'll see how we can better juggle these two into our plans. I respect the team here at Lucille Packard, and they are doing great so far. Photos soon... with time.

Nick, thanks. We're already experiencing some of that. Matthew has spent the last two nights with us, mostly me, and I've been largely ignoring the laptop and Blackberry. We had our first visitors today, and brought them to see Sarah in the NICU. Both kids are doing great, but still very touching.
