TWO GIRLS!



Yep, that's right everyone! We are having TWO GIRLS! So, it looks like most of the people (including myself) who voted on the poll were wrong! We found out a lot earlier than I thought we were going to. I had the early anatomy ultrasound at 16 weeks 3 days, and they were able to tell us with 90-95% certainty that I've got two girls cooking in there. :) I was just shocked. I honestly thought that it was going to be a boy and a girl, or two boys. The girl/girl pairing was the last one I expected for some reason.

We have another anatomy ultrasound at the end of February, so we'll of course ask them to check again, but from what I saw on the ultrasound, it looks like there's no question it's girls.

I'm so excited! I think I honestly would have been excited no matter how it turned out, but now it just feels more real. I'm starting to picture them, and wonder what they'll be like, and it's all very exciting!

Also, the clothes! :) My friend Wendy GENEROUSLY gave us all her clothes that her sweet daughter no longer fits into. And I mean, she gave us like 12 shopping bags full! After we sorted it all, we realized that with two babies, we'll still need a bit more, but it's SUCH an awesome start and just SO nice. It was really fun looking through all the tiny baby clothes and picturing tiny babies in them!

So, that's my news everyone! Two girls! Oh, and also, a picture of our girls:



Happy Tuesday everyone!
