Cincinnati, Ohio -- Michelle, left, and Angela Wright, two of the rarest babies on record, celebrated their first birthday today. Technically not twins although born at the same time, the baby girls were born from separate and independent uteri. "It's been a special weekend for the babies and us," said the babies' mother, Lisa Wright, now 18. The dual uteri births are so rare, Dr. Stephen Hornstein said he's only been able to find records of one other such happening. The girls are shown with quarters saved by relatives for them.
