They were born by C-section about 7 weeks early, at 33w 3d. MacKenzie Rose was born at 6:01 PM, weighing 3 pounds, 2.6 ounces and measuring 15 3/4 inches long. Her sister Alyssa Ann was born at 6:02, weighing 4 pounds, 1 ounce and measuring 17 inches long. Alyssa is on a CPAP for apnea and both babies are expected to stay in the hospital for the next two weeks. During that time they will undergo detox. They were born high due to their mother's drug addiction.
These are my nieces. I haven't seen them yet, but when I do I will post pictures. We hope to make the trip to CT to see them this weekend. It will be bittersweet for me to see these sweet babies but oh well. I love them and their older brother and sister MaKayla and Anthony even though I do not like their mother or her life choices. All four children are innocent and did not ask to be born, so they will get smothered in love from Auntie Jenn.

JENN, YOU AND ALL YOUR FAMILY WILL BE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. THE BABIES WILL DO FINE I AM SURE. THE LORD NEVER GIVES US MORE THEN WE CAN HANDLE I HAVE COME TO REALIZE THAT. WHEN CHRISTIAN WAS IN THE NICU FOR THOSE 4 WEEKS HE WAS ON CPAP AND THE BREATHING TUBE. HE DID FINE, THAT APNEA IS A REALLY SCARY THING. WE ARE STILL DEALING WITH HIS HEART CONDIDTION BUT WE PRAY ALOT. AS FOR THE NEW BABIES I HOPE THAT YOU GET THE CHANCE TO GO SEE THEM. JUST HAVING YOU AROUND, AND THEM FEELING SOMEONE THAT LOVES THEM CLOSE BY WILL MEAN THE WORLD. I WISH YOU All THE BEST! THE HEFFREN FAMILY
Hey Jenn,
All I can say is you are an amazing woman. I keep praying that these babies will come to your family to be yours but I know that may not come to pass. I am so proud of you for still smothering them with love. I believe you are stronger than I
