daughters of Cole and Deanna Leavitt
great granddaughters of Max & Dianne Oertli
Hattie Leavitt and Frances Leavitt

They have no middle names because
it's tradition in Cole's family for the girls to keep their maiden names
as middle names when they get married. I chose the names because I
liked them and they are also characters from books that I had as a kid.
They
were born at 36 1/2 weeks gestation. Both were healthy and big and had
no complications so we were able to bring them home after just two
nights.
Frances 6lbs and Hattie 6lbs 14oz
They
shared a placenta which means they came from one egg that split and are
technically identical... but they look different to us. Maybe it's that
one is a pound bigger? I guess we'll see if they look more alike as
they get older.
Thank you all for your support and love and all the meals and help we received... We are truly grateful!

From Tenelle: We chose Emmett because he is a big boy and
needed a "big name". I also like double letters. Reid is Mat's middle
and my grandma's maiden name. I like family names for middle names.
