Update on the Baby Front!

As of today, I am officially 14 weeks along. AND, as of today, we found out that we are expecting TWINS!!! No, this isn't a joke although James was joking in the waiting room while we waited to go back for the first ultrasound "Watch, just watch. You're going to be pregnant with twins." We were still joking about it when the nurse got to business gooing me up, and she asked "Why? Do twins run in your family?" to which we answered, "Kinda." Matt & Jason are twins, but my half brothers, and we don't know much about James' geneology. Anyway, the nurse zoomed in and said, "Well, because that's what you've got! Twins!"

James & I about hit the floor. My jaw is still there, and it still hasn't quite sunk in. James swears up & down he somehow knew I was having twins, but it caught me COMPLETELY by surprise.

Here are the first pictures of our new babies. We won't know the sexes for about another month, but it does look like they are in seperate placentas which indicates they'll be fraternal, not identical twins.

It looks like, as my mom is concentrating on "halving" everything this New Year to minimize expenses & maximize time, we're doubling everything including her grandchildren. :)
