From 2 to 4!!!

We have been blessed with the best news! We are having TWIN BOYS!!!
I went to my midwife on Monday because I was having some problems and she thought it was a good idea if I came in. They checked me out and found the baby heartbeat but still thought they should do an ultrasound to be sure there were no issues with the placenta. The ultrasound tech fit me in between appointments for a "quick" look. She placed the ultrasound wand on my belly and said "Do you already know that you are having twins?" I started laughing and asked if she was joking, she was very serious and said "no, I don't joke". I asked her how she could tell so quickly and she said "well, there are two!" She also commented that she thinks they are identical. It was amazing to watch them, almost like they are dancing with all the arms and legs in motion. They are facing each others feet so basically they can kick each other in the head all day long. She was able to tell the sex so instead of telling me I had her put those photos in an envelope so I could find that out with Ryan. He was surprised and then started calling everyone he could think of. It has been so fun to see all the great reactions of excitement and shock! We both feel so blessed!
