Two for the Price of One!

6 weeks


So, on November 21st Josh and I went back to STL to have our first ultrasound (u/s). We were both really excited because this would be the day they told us if one or both of our embryos "took". We had bought a video camera to capture our journey into parenthood and Josh brought it in with us to the exam room. Dr. A came in, all smiles, and said we were gonna get started...


With the lights of he began the exam and right away we were able to visualize a dark spot on the u/s which hadn't been there before. It was our baby! The doctor pointed out the different areas of the sac and showed us where the actual baby was in the picture we were looking at....Then.... he moved the "wand" just a little and suddenly there were TWO dark spots side by side...he said, "And there's baby 2".... We have TWINS!!!


It doesn't seem possible that this could happen for us. We've waited for so long and now all the wishing, hoping, praying, bargaining we'd done over the years has been answered!

Lacey and Josh,
You two hold a special place in my heart, I love you both very much and am really looking forward to being an aunt to these babies. I'm so glad you started a blog to capture this great journey. It's so exciting, you two are going to make great parents.
