Here they are!


Ben liked this picture because it shows Twin B flexing like a body builder!


So, per the last picture, we are FOR SURE having twin boys (sorry if the picture offended anybody)!!!!!!  They were not shy at all!  We were very surprised, again, to say the least.  We both thought for sure we were having either twin girls or one of each, but not two boys.  We are excited though.  We had girl names all picked out but no boy names.  And now we have to think of two.  The ultrasound went well.  Babies are healthy and growing well.  They have all their body parts and both weigh almost 1 pound each.  Twin B is a little smaller than Twin A, but not by much.  I read on babycenter.com that a singleton baby should weigh (at 21 weeks) about 3/4 a pound, so compared to THAT, my baby boys are growing REALLY well!  I know we're going to have our hands full, but I know the Lord would not have given us these boys if He didn't think we could handle it.  So that's it.  We're having boys!!!!!!!!!

It was really cute, on our way home from picking Lilli up at some friends', we told her she was having baby brothers.  Well, a little later, she got fussy and wanted to hold her baby brothers.  She was crying for them and wanting to hold them now!  It was funny!

Also, totally random and has nothing to do with the twins, but this morning I was cooking some eggs and when I flipped them over, they seriously started cheeping like little chicks.  It kind of freaked me out!

We definitely know how hard boy names are!! We are learning that boys are fun too and Jonas gets TWO friends...we are VERY VERY excited!!! I guess that is why Lilli is so bossy:) because she has two little brothers coming that she will have to keep in line!!

How exciting! I totally thought you were going to have girls though. Good luck on trying to pick out names.

I was so right- 2 boys! I am so excited for you! I really like that the eggs freaked you out. Speaking of eggs and twins, a few weeks ago I was cracking eggs to make french toast and one of the eggs had two yolks- twin chicks! (until their progress was halted by mean egg farmers and then me who ate them). It was cute- I took a picture of it.

Yea!!! BOYS!!! I so did not think you would have boys let alone 2 of them! I'm so excited though. Think of all the fun things you can do with them....play catch...throw footballs together....go fishing and hunting....camping....catching frogs...etc. etc! I LOVE little boys and you will to! Your egg story is pretty creepy. Did you eat the eggs after they chirped at you? HAHA Love and miss you guys tons!!

Nicole said...

Congrats Ben and Shari! People who have a girl followed by 2 boys are the coolest...

bre said...

seriously, can anyone even tell what those are pictures of? oh well...anywho...I think it's pretty sweet that you are having boys. Hey, you could still name one of your boys Elliot...He doesn't have to know that that's what you were going to call him if he were a GIRL. I mean, it is a BOY'S name after all, though Evelyn might not work so well. Anywho, congrats, I'm happy for you. i can't wait to see the two little guys. Pick out some boy names and let us know what you are thinking so I can give you my opinion that I know you will listen to...:) LOVE YOU GUYS!! CONGRATS!!! miss you!

bre said...

Listen here missy!!! Just because I TAKE time out of my EXTREMELY BUSY day to write on peoples blogs doesn't mean that I have a lot of time on my hands! I am insulted that you feel that way....hmm...so what if I now have 3 blogs, and post about 50 pictures a day, plus have the time to totally re-design two blogs and customize and use photoshop to do so, then take the time to upload the pictures to photobucket, then take the time to write lengthy stories about what the pictures represent...GIVE ME A BREAK!!!

okay, I admit. I have no life, and probly shouldn't spend so much time on blogger... :) LOVE YOU!

My Boys, Life's Joys said...
