( CNN ) It 's been a busy few weeks for multiples . The first set of female quintuplets in the world since 1969 was born in Houston on April 8 , and the parents are blogging about their unique experience . Danielle Busby delivered all five girls at the Woman 's Hospital of Texas via C-section at 28 weeks and two days , according to CNN affiliate KPRC . Parents Danielle and Adam and big sister Blayke are now a family of eight . The babies are named Ava Lane , Hazel Grace , Olivia Marie , Parker Kate and Riley Paige . `` We are so thankful and blessed , '' said Danielle Busby , who had intrauterine insemination to get pregnant . `` I honestly give all the credit to my God . I am so thankful for this wonderful hospital and team of people here . They truly all are amazing . '' You can learn all about their journey at their blog , `` It 's a Buzz World . '' Early news reports said the Busby girls were the first all-female quintuplets born in the U.S . But a user alerted CNN to news clippings that show quintuplet girls were born in 1959 to Charles and Cecilia Hannan in San Antonio . All of the girls died within 24 hours . Like the Busby family , Sharon and Korey Rademacher were hoping for a second child . When they found out what they were having , they decided to keep it a secret from family and friends . That 's why they did n't tell their family the gender of baby No . 2 -- or that Sharon was actually expecting not one but two girls , according to CNN affiliate WEAR . And when everyone arrived at West Florida Hospital in Pensacola , Florida , after Sharon gave birth March 11 , they recorded everyone 's reactions to meeting twins Mary Ann Grace and Brianna Faith . The video was uploaded to YouTube on Saturday and has been viewed more than 700,000 times . Could you keep it a secret ?
