Proud parents from Washington State welcomed their five quintuplets home after they were born 13 weeks early and spent 11 weeks in the hospital’s Nursery Intensive Care Unit (NyICU).

Graham and Stephanie Freels welcomed their babies–four daughters: Adelyn, Eliana, Linnea, and Harper, and one son: Fisher–at Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, Arizona, on June 4. The siblings were born at 27 weeks gestation, according to a statement by Dignity Health, weighing little more than 2 pounds (approx. 0.9 kilograms) each.
