[Games] Re: Movie Congrats Game: Round Five!
DW: Gabriella Grace Cohen “Gabby” (29) (executive editor-in-chief)
DD: Rachel Amanda Cohen “Sky Angel” (6)
DS: Andrew Samuel Cohen “Chief Warrior” (4)
DS/DD: Samuel Joseph Cohen "Eagle Wings" & Sophia Grace Cohen "Lunar Clouds"(0)When I found out we were having twins I was very nervous. Not only because of it being double the work but because I was worried about when we take them out. In New York when you walk with 2 kids by yourself you hold each ones' hand. But when you have 4 and you must carry two it's more difficult. Even if you use a stroller, how are you going to hang on to the older ones? After a long battle of discussing what to name the twins we finally settled on Emily and Ethan. But when I delivered the doctor was very rude. He made us wait 3 hours to get an emergency c-section. And then after they were born he came up to Tony and demanded to be paid right then and there. Soon we found out that the doctor's name was Ethan, he was married to an Emily and they had 2 kids named Ella and Ethan Jr.! At first I wasn’t going to tell Tony, because these were the names that I loved, but then he found out and really wanted to change them. So when Gammy, Joe, & Grace arrived in New York we asked them for their opinions. Gammy (and Sky) said to go with totally different names, and pushed Eagle Wings and Lunar Cloud at us. Chief wanted Princess, Grace wanted Sophia and Joe wanted Samuel. So finally we decided to go with Sophia Grace & Samuel Joseph (after Grace & Joe). When we brought Luna and Eagle home Rachel seemed to forget how she said she didn't want any more brothers or sisters. She loved holding them. And Chief was just very curious at how these baby "dolls" could move and cry. "I wasn't really that small was I?" He kept asking. When the twins were just 3 weeks old we flew out to Sitka to visit Gampa, Nana, & Gammy. We stayed with them for a month. During that time I really thought about moving up here, at least during the summer. But my work and Tony's work is in New York. About 6 months after Luna and Eagle came come I got a big raise. We decided to save the raise so in a year or two we could move to the suburbs. That way if we had more kids I wouldn't be so worried about losing them in a crowd. Later that month there was a big book convention in Germany, so I decided to take Sky and Chief with me. Sky was VERY excited, because she had just learned to read. Andrew was really excited because it meant time away from the crying "dolls". Tony decided to stay back with the babies.
