TWINS!!!

 

So this morning I was so nervous about the ultrasound test that I threw up for the first time, just after breakfast. Lovely. Nerves. So I left an hour early, (because I'm anal like that) and it's a good thing I did because there was a huge crash on 1-5 that slowed down traffic to close to a stand still... took me the whole time to get there. Just on time. Aaron met me there, took a long lunch. I waited on the table pant-less for what seemed like forever and the Dr. came in and shook my hand as if he totally knew what he was going to find. I immediately saw the two bubbles flicker on the screen and started crying. He said "Looks like there are two!"

 He then measured baby A and then was able to zoom in to a beating heart beat... and then he turned on the sound!! I heard the heart beat!

He then proceeded to go after baby B.. this baby is further back kind of behind the other baby, so its harder to see, but the baby measured at exactly the same size and the heart rate was exactly the same as baby A. He said that they are a little small, but the heart rates look great and strong. I will go in again for an ultrasound next Friday to see how they are growing. Probably bringing home more pictures! We are thrilled and so grateful for this miraculous gift we have been given from Heavenly Father. Egan and Evelyn were so funny, they knew I had the appointment today and when they got off the bus they were asking about it.. when we got inside I showed Egan the picture and he yelled "TWO BABIES! I KNEW IT!" He'd been praying for two for the last month now. His little testimony I'm sure has grown as ours have on how Heavenly Father answers our prayers.
I've been on cloud nauseous nine all day!  Calling everyone who knew about the appointment and now preparing this blog to go public. So here it is. For some of you reading this, this may be your first visit to my blog, and this is the first entry you read. This is certainly not the end of posting our story, but it is a happy ending to our ivf journey.. for now :) Feel free to start from the beginning and also read about the amazing gift that made it all possible.
