We're Growing!

A few weeks ago,  Tim and I brought the game Tellestrations over to play with my family.  If you haven't played it, the basic idea is that everyone is drawing someone else's phrase and by the time it makes it around the group, you bust up laughing at how the phrase changes (like the game of Telephone).

I purposefully didn't draw what was written once we were almost to the end of the game.  Instead, I drew this:


Thanks, for the idea, Aunt Becky (click the link if you're not a Full House fan).  My mom guessed "Half Swiss Ink Baby." Close, but not quite, Mom.  :)  Everyone figured it out together and then freaked out together. 

We thought that was the end of our happy news.

We were wrong.



I went in for my first ultrasound at twelve weeks and was stunned to hear the technician say, "Bethany, there are two babies in there." What?! How did this happen?  TWINS!! I couldn't stop smiling. As she proceeded to take pictures of "Twin A" and "Twin B," all I could think about is how many times Tim wished twins upon his sisters.  Well, none of them have twins yet.  

Who knew that my pregnancy would be so similar to Aunt Becky's?  Family members have been asking us about names.  Maybe I should consider Nicky and Alex if they're both boys? Or Mary Kate and Ashley if they're girls? No matter what I name them, they'll have better hair than Aunt Becky's twins (I'm not serious about those names, just to be clear).

I can't stop thinking about all the things that are going to be different now that I know there will be two babies at once.  Two cribs. Two car seats. How am I going to take them to the grocery store? So many questions.  I'm up for any advice from those with twins experience.
