today was my 20 week ultrasound. well, really 19 weeks and 6 days. i was so nervous all day until my appointment, but all went well. very well. better than expected, actually.
because we saw this:
twins!and this:
a boy!and this:
and a girl!we are so so excited. we are going to go from a family of 2 to a family of 4. i'm still in shock, and probably will be for a long long time. i mean, i knew twins were a possibility, but i think i convinced myself we were having just one girl. andrew is really excited too. i think he's cute. it is fun to see him get into the groove as far as getting ready to be parents goes. we weren't able to have a full appointment today because of the whole surprise twins thing, so we had to reschedule for a longer appointment next week. we'll have an hour long ultrasound and an hour long twin consultation, whatever that means. the ultrasound tech nurse lady did some quick measurements, and both babies measured exactly 19 weeks 6 days. the pictures we got today aren't that great because there wasn't enough time to look at each one in detail, but i like the ones we got. the little boy is affectionately called twin A, while our little girl is twin B. they probably won't appreciate my posting of their man and lady parts on the internet, but aren't their little bum cheeks cute?
