5 Beautiful Babies!!!
Wow, what an experience that was! I can hardly believe they are here. I was in the delivery room and it was awesome to see one beautiful baby come out after another. I took a bunch of video but I don't know if I will have time to put it up here yet but I just wanted to let everybody know that the babies are here and they are beautiful. Although I might not have enough time to put it on YouTube, I have some video that I am sending to the local Austin TV stations so look for it there. If I don't post it tonight, I should for sure have it by tomorrow. Something else, that I have to mention because it was so cool is that the doctor that actually performed the c section (Dr. Park who is really awesome) actually baked five little cakes for the birthday! I will put a picture of the cakes here:
Here is the video (I will try to put up pictures of the babies for those that can't see the video):

Wow! Your new children are absolutely beautiful. It is just amazing at the miracles God provides.
PS... I can't believe this hasn't hit Phoenix news yet... as far as I am concerned, it is the best story of the day.

Congrats, you two. What a blessing, what an absolute miracle. I hope Rachelle has a speedy recovery and that the quints won't have to stay too long in the NICU.

1000 Congratulations to you all.
I have been following your journey for the last few weeks from Australia. I am expecting twins in February 2008.
Your babies are just gorgeous, and you have done so very well carrying them as far as you did. You should all be very proud.
I wish you all the very best of luck and good health to you all for the future. I look forward to reading up on your new adventures with your quins.
Kindest Regards

if i didn't already have one (of many) beautiful reason to believe in miracles, the wilkinson family would certainly make me a believer.

Our family watched the video five times last night - one time for each gorgeous and amazing baby! Huge kudos to Rachelle for doing such a fantastic job of growing enormous babies. They are seriously healthy looking and way cute. Our prayers today have been in gratitude for the Lord blessing and watching over you and your babies. Congratulations!!!

Congratulations...I am from Ohio and the news had posted your guys' story and webpage on theirs. What a miracle! My cousin will be having her first any day now. It's so awesome.
I hope everything continues as wonderful as it already has. They will all be home before you know it!!!!!

Lucy sent me over and I'm so glad she did.
I am so amazed! What an awesome experience. I have five children but they were single births born over a period of thirteen years. I cannot imagine five babied at one time. I do pray you have lots of help.
They are beautiful babies.

I came here via Lucy Stern's blog.
Your babies are amazing miracles! What a wonderful family you have. I wish you all many years of happiness and many memories to cherish.
It looks as if they have a couple of older siblings also.
What fun they will have caring for those little ones!
