Mom, Dad and Twins Share Same Birthday

Posted on: Thursday, 25 November 2004, 00:00 CST

BELLEVIEW, Fla. - It's hard to forget a birthday in the Dover family: Mom, dad and soon-to-be 1-year-old twins were all born on Nov. 26.

On Friday, Kimberly Dover will turn 31, her husband Billy will be 35 and their twins, Angelica and Derrick will celebrate their first birthday.

The central Florida parents said they were surprised to have any children, let alone on their birthday. After years of infertility, they were about to give up. Instead they tried one more treatment, a series of shots that proved effective.

The babies were due Dec. 17, 2003. But Kimberly was hospitalized a month earlier with complications, and a doctor decided to deliver the babies by Cesarian section - on the same day the expectant parents were born.

"I really wasn't thinking about it until the doctor came in that morning to see what was going on," Kimberly told the Ocala Star-Banner. "It was to the point where he said that I could have started having seizures."

The proud parents are looking forward to more birthdays.

"I can't wait till they go to Walt Disney World," Kimberly said. "And the Christmas Parade. They're going to love the lights."

Belleview is about 50 miles northwest of Orlando.
