How Many Do You See????

So, it was confirmed today. Our vet was right....


WE'RE HAVING TWINS!!!

Due date: November 17th

I guess we didn't understand that the two lines meant more than "You're Pregnant"...that's why I like to buy the digital ones. Think it would have said "You're Pregnant" twice?? ha,ha...bad joke

Now, I'll
tell ya'll the story :) We were in Blackfoot over the weekend for Easter and since I have been sicker than a dog for weeks now and I am showing at what I thought was 10 weeks along, we decided to have Scott's brother Jason, DVM I might add, hook us up with an ultrasound. See, this isn't out of the ordinary. Jase has always done our first US at his clinic, we just live farther away these days and hadn't been able to do one yet. Well, Jason and his wife Kelly (yes, there are two KELLI/Y Moulton's...it can be scary) so lovingly met us at the clinic at like 10:00 Saturday night for the surprise of a lifetime. I couldn't see the screen at first cause Jason's arm was in the way, but he says, "What the? Kelly, get over here!" So Kelly came over and was in the middle of a conversation and looked at the screen and said, "THERE ARE TWO THERE!" Needless to say, none of us remember what she was talking about before that moment :) Despite the fact we could clearly see two separate sacs, heartbeats and moving babies, we wanted to wait until my first appt. to confirm and tell everyone. That was today and they did another quick ultrasound to check it out and there are two cute little babies kickin' around in my belly! Two heartbeats and lots of acrobatics! Yay!!! It was hilarious to see the look on my Dr. face when we told him we went to the vet this weekend and he told us we are having twins! Priceless! I really don't think he completely believed us though, because when he got the US out and looked, he said, "Well, I'll Be. Your vet was right, there are two!" Ha,ha I am super excited, but a little overwhelmed by the idea my days working will be over and I will have four children age 4 and under. Heck, I may even end up with four kids under the age of 4 for a small amount of time, depending on how close I come to my due date. What would be more fun than 4 birthdays in October??? Well, February and March are off limits for the rest of time in our house, so it will forever be safe to visit during that time. He,he

So, that's the news. I think deep down Scott and I both had thought, "Maybe?", but we never said it out loud. As if that would have changed anything!! As Kelly said, "There are two there", Scott said he just thought PLEASE ONLY BE TWO! he,he It's pretty crazy, there are no twins on my side. But that is all about to change! At least I feel better about the fact I can barely function for the last month and look like I'm 4 1/2 months pregnant! I was in need of MAJOR reassurance, and now I have it! That is a great thing for a pregnant woman!

P.S. Scott has already started "investment" opportunities for our babies and if he tries to sell you one, or both, just understand his wife has not approved this plan!!!! :)

well, that's a dang fun story to tell when they get older!

All I can say is...it's a fun ride...and a hell of a ride too!

Dedre said...

ohh and...most dr.'s won't let you go over 38 weeks. So chances are VERY high that you're having those babies in october!

That's going to be one FUN month in your house! Honestly...how great, because then they don't feel bad when one gets presents and the other doesn't. Meg's birthday is in November...Jill is in april, and she becomes green with Envy when november comes around...it kills her until christmas! and honestly...it kills us a little to hear her complaining!
