While much of America was gathering around a dining table on Thanksgiving, a hospital in Missouri stayed busy caring for not one, not two, not even three, but 12 sets of newborn twins.
The cuteness overload occurred this week at Saint Luke's Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri. Staff believe it's the largest number of twins the hospital has ever cared for at once."We always see multiples in here, but not 12 sets at one time," nurse Danielle Gathers told CNN affiliate KMBC. And, predictably, they're incredibly cute.
Every set of twins was born this week -- all between five and 14 weeks early, a spokeswoman for the hospital told CNN. They're being cared for by staff in the neonatal intensive care unit.Read MoreThough some of the babies are looking at longer stays in the hospital than others, new mom Amanda Tollifer told KMBC she's hoping her new bundles of joy will be home by Christmas."It's our ultimate goal," she said.
