Double the blessings

We are having TWINS!! This morning we went to the doctor to get our first look at the babies. As soon as the screen came up I said "oh there's a baby". She quickly corrected me and said there are two. Of course I teared up at the sight of our babies. One is measuring a little smaller than the other, but the doctor assured us that is normal. The best part was hearing their heartbeats. They weren't as strong as I would like, but once again the doctor didn't seem concerned at all. Here is the first picture of our babies.


Thursday we go in for another ultrasound. If everything looks good, then I will be released to my regular OB. He also confirmed my estimated due date and I was right....February 28th, 2012.
