Our DOUBLE surprise

Picture this- I'm laying on the ultrasound table at 9 weeks and Bryce is sitting in the chair beside me. The doctor begins his test and says "Well, there's number one.... And there's number two". A sit up from a lying position to get a better look an exclaim, "what?!" Bryce leans forward, "You're kidding, right?" Then, I'm sure with much amusement he states, "Nope, not kidding. Let's just check around for anymore". Both our hearts drop.




I think the doctor had to tell Bryce he wasn't kidding three or four more times. But there they were, our cute little double blessings. It happened to also be a little birthday surprise for Bryce. All through his birthday date the next day we continually said to each other, "we're having TWO babies". I think this was to try an affirm it really was happening.

I think telling our families about the twin thing was more of a shock and more fun then telling them about the pregnancy. Both our mothers said they had wanted twins and now they're super excited to have them for grandchildren.



My main question, how in the world does a girl like me, at 4'11" and just over a hundred pounds carry two babies?! We shall see.
