Expecting Twins

Wow, were we surprised! We went in for our 20 week ultra sound appointment to find out what we are having and to see our baby for the first time. I felt nervous going into the appointment but also very excited to see my baby for the first time. When Ron and I went into the office the nurse shared the news with us that we were expecting twin girls! Ron almost fainted and I was in total shock! Our babies were labeled baby a and baby b. How amazing it was to see them both up on the screen. The nurse also told us that based upon the girls sharing one placenta and having a thin membrane that separates them that we are most likely expecting identical twins. Currently, the girls weigh 11 ounces each and are both healthy. We would have never anticipated this news going into the appointment but feel very blessed! I can't wait to meet them and I'm so excited about having two girls! I'm already planning our shopping trips and spa days together.
