Hello World
An hour or so after Rick had told the others what was going on with Kate and the twins everything got better. At 11:55pm on Mother's Day the world welcomed the two newest additions to the Castle family.
Rick had come out with Kate's doctor in tow to let the others know that both mother and the babies were doing well.
"Can we see them?" Lanie eagerly asked.
"Just the immediate family for now; Dr. Parish."
With that Alexis followed after her father with her grandmother and her step grandparents in tow as Kate's doctor went to clean up before checking on her other patients.
Upon Kate's request; she and the twins were brought back to her suite before the nurse brought the twins to the NICU.
"You up for some visitors, Kate?" Rick asked as he peek his head in.
Kate smiled as she knew full well that her parents, her mother in law and step daughter were right behind Rick in the hallway.
"Sure; let them in."
Within seconds of walking into the suite the twins had their three grandparents wrapped around their tiny fingers. They also had their older sister in complete awe.
"What are their names?" Alexis asked as her little sister wrapped her hand around one of Alexis's fingers.
Just as they had with the shower/gender reveal party; Rick was going to announce the baby girl's name while Kate announced the baby boy's name.
The grandparents were waiting with bated breath just as Alexis was; after all it had been a long day for all of them.
"Come on; Richard." Martha said impatiently.
"This little beauty's name is Kayley Rose…."
"And this handsome devil's name is Carsyn Jamie." Kate said finishing her husband's train of thought.
"They're beautiful; my dears."
"Kayley looks just like you did thirty – seven years ago." Johanna said to her daughter.
"All the ladies in this family are beautiful." Jim commented.
"Carsyn looks just like you; kiddo. A chip off the old Castle block."
There was a moment after that the entire family just paused to take in the newness of Kayley and Carsyn.
"Welcome to the family Kayley and Carsyn….Welcome to the world." Alexis said.
