Surprise!

So rewind a few months ago Brad and I started to discuss when would be a good time to start trying for baby number 2. After much thought and pray we figured we would try for a few months to see if we could get the baby on my insurance, (it's really good and it goes until August even if I quit). Come December I woke up one morning and decided to take a test, low and behold it was positive! I was so excited, I went and crawled back in bed with Brad and told him. He was slightly shocked to say the least. Well I was feeling great no sickness everything was wonderful. I did have my doubts about not being ready to be a mom of two but I dealt with it. Come Christmas I was starting to feel crummy, nauseous all day. Few days later I could make it a day with out throwing up at least 3 times. Some days I couldn't even keep water down. I thought I was sick with Ryker but that is nothing compared to how I felt now.
Well I decided to try a new doctor. I set up an appointment with Dr. Lind. On Monday we went for our appointment, 9 weeks along. I wasn't even going to have Brad come because it wasn't that big a deal but we were going to see what the baby looked like. Dr. Lind asked me questions about my health and did the whole "fun" check up. It was time to see what this baby looked like.
Before he started Brad said "just don't tell us there are two in there". He put the goop on my tummy and asked me what I saw on the screen. I said I saw a bunch of gray. He said you are going to have twins. I laughed and said yeah right. Well I guess he wasn't joking cause right there on the screen were two little babies. I don't have a history of twins and never in a million years would I have thought we were going to have twins. So come August 20th we will have two new additions to our family. Not going to lie we are a little shell shocked but excited!
