Drumroll Please.....

So, we had the ultrasound, and they took tons of pictures.

Can you tell anything in these?

Aww, cutie little spine and buns!

And a tummy and face, looking up.


Now for some parts. Muh... who really knows what things are in there?
The biggest suprise: THIS!!!:

Interpretation:
The last picture is actually what we saw first.

TWINS!

I kid you not!
Is that something to joke about? Not unless you are mean.
Yes, we are having twins, as depicted by the 4th picture of their heads together, total suprise, no, they don't run in the family, and for those mothers of twins who will ask, there's one
placenta and two sacks, so probably identical. The first pictue is "Baby A" whom we will refer to as Almonds and the second picture is "Baby B" whom we will refer to as Banana. We are mature, seeing as how they are boys and all. (I know my mom is shaking her head at me right now.)

So, as for names, ugh. We have a girl name, it's Alyssa. Half Alyson, half Melissa; after my sisters. Boys: no clue. If we follow the same idea, we could combo my brothers' names: Chris, Jacob and Kevin. So far I've come up with: Javis (J pronounced as H) and Chravis (kinda like crevice.) Another idea is to just have my brothers compete to see who can be the favorites and the two winners will get their name sponsored by a child.

But for reals, no ideas on names. Suggestions still welcome! (I guess we still have a few months to figure this all out.)

Ta-da!
Time to go eat. Oh, how awesome is it that I gained 14 pounds this month?

You should have seen the stir I just caused.
Maybe when I read your post, I yelled. A bit loud. Then my sister came running in thinking something was wrong. I was like, "Sorry for the false alarm. I'm just really excited." Then I cowered cause I felt like a retard for enjoying your news so much.
That is all.
Congratulations!!!

Carol said...

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so super excited for you. You and Jason will love it and Oakley is going to love terrorizing 2 babies at 1 time...but wait until they grow up and get their paybacks...ha ha.

Krystal said...

Shut Up!!! That is so crazy! I am so excited for you. In my opinion twins was the easy part...bringing twins home to a house with a two year old was the not so easy part! Good luck:)

So fun for you to have twins! I've always wanted twins in the family... and I was just hoping they wouldn't be mine! It was great to talk to you tonight and hear your news! As for names... that's a tough one! Now you have to figure out 2 names! I figure that with middle names included, you can use just about every male name in the family. Melvin and Kelvin has a nice ring to it!

So, I couldn't have been more wrong in my guess. I feel like a loser. Just kidding.
Congratulations! Wow!

MeL said...

I'm still so so excited/on the verge of crazy happy tears! Seriously, this news could not have been better yesterday! Philip is excited that you get to have twins so that I "can realize that they aren't fun" throught yours! What a punk. But anyhoo, I'm so excited for my new little boys to be a surrogate mother to! Oh, and I still love Oakley too, let's not forget him!

KatieJ said...

Congratulations!! That is so exciting! I think you should stick with Almonds and Banana. Or at least the initials, like Andy and Bart... Yeah!

The Jones Fam said...

Why does just looking at that picture of two little heads make me think you are amazing? It totally overwhelms me, in a good way! I am so excited for you!!

amy said...

Congrats! I always prayed for twins but was never so fortunate

The Ricks Fix said...

I guess I'm not surprised. You can do just about everything else, why not have twins. I hope you know I think you're amazing. You will be a fabulous mother of 3 boys. Trust me...I'd take 3 boys over 3 girls anyday. One girl is enough drama for me.
Congrats!!

Jason and Kristy said...

This is so exciting!! Congrats! Unfortunately it took me almost 2 weeks to come up with a name for my puppy so I don't think I'll be of much help in that department. But congrats, I can't believe you're having twins!!
