An update of multiple proportions!






In case you were wondering and have no desire to read through the ramblings of a future father, yes, the title of this blog is indeed indicative of the number of babies in my wife's stomach.



We're having TWINS! Take a minute for yourself, take a deep breath. Resume reading.



We were surprised, too! We had an ultrasound and sure enough, there are two babies in there. Affectionately named "Twin A" and "Twin B" they are stacked on top of one another. We are fairly certain of gender as well. Twin A or the bottom twin we believe to be a boy (my dad was right!) and Twin B or the top twin we believe to be a girl (I was right!). So chances are we'll have a boy who will have a younger sister!



The ultrasound is truly amazing, not since the advent of the sonic boom has sound intrigued me so much! You can see the twins kicking one another which is hopefully a sign of things to come. Not really, though. Violence, as the twins will learn doesn't solve anything.



Stephanie will be 20 weeks on Friday, May 11. This marks the halfway point of a single birth pregnancy. For multiples, however, we are most likely past the halfway point.



I added a couple of pictures in here, enjoy and keep the amazement alive! Feel free to comment, oh reader.





Yours truly,
