IT'S TWO BOYS?!?!?!

Do you want to know a secret? It's not something that I'm proud to admit. But let me tell you a backstory first....

When I first found out I was pregnant with you and your brother, I asked my doctor how many babies were inside me. I needed to know FOR SURE. He assured me it was just one. And I'm not going to lie, I was a little sad. I saw the bond that David and Emily had, and I was hoping to have that same twin experience again. I truly loved having twins. So in order to be happy about being pregnant with just one baby, I started focusing on all the good things (which also turned into all the negative things.) I would be able to snuggle just one baby. I'd get more sleep. And don't even get me started on potty training twins! One baby would be sooooo much easier this time around!

Daddy and I went in for a gender ultrasound check, we were in for the shock of our lives to find that once again, there were TWO BABIES INSIDE ME! I laughed hysterically. Loud, screaming type of laughter. Unfortunately, they were unable to see the genders of EITHER BABY!

Now here's were the secret comes in...

I secretly hoped for a boy and girl again. I loved seeing their unique bond. I loved seeing their divine nature shine through. I loved that they were best friends, but also had their own interests that being different genders natural brings. PLUS! I had everything I needed for boy/girl twins!

So when I when I went in for another ultrasound to find the gender of the babies, and I found out it was TWO BOYS. I cried. and I mean I UGLY CRIED. HARD. UNCONTROLLABLY! I couldn't stop crying. I went from thinking I was having one baby girl to finding out I was having TWO BOYS. Daddy was at work when I had the ultrasound so he was able to listen in on the phone. He heard my sobs and tried to remind me that as long as they were healthy, there was nothing to be sad about. That comment DID NOT HELP. I cried even harder. Pretty much, a was hormonal, pregnant HOT MESS.

But I quickly came around and was very excited about having two boys. And looking back, I see that it is all as it should be. I wouldn't trade having you two boys together for anything. I have no doubt that you two were meant to come to this earth together, and I couldn't love you more!
