Team Blue x 2!

We found out Friday that both of our sweet babies are boys! I was only half wrong since I was convinced we had one of each. I was a little worried that I would be disappointed if one of them wasn't a girl. We know we're done after these babies, and I really wanted another girl. I wasn't disappointed, though, not even a little bit. As soon as she said it was two boys, I knew I didn't care. I love them both so much already. I'm a little sad that I won't get to reuse any of Piper's cute clothes and bows, but my sister is pretty excited about getting her hand-me-downs for my niece. I'm also a little scared at the thought of two boys at once. I'm pretty clueless about all things boy, but it will be a new adventure. One that I'm blessed and honored to be taking!

It's probably also best for Piper that they're both boys. She's been the only child for so long, and I know this is going to be a tough adjustment for her. She'll always be the oldest and they'll always be the youngest, but they also get the "specialness" of being the twins. So, I'm glad she gets to be the only girl.

They already have such different personalities. It's so neat that we can tell that in the womb! One baby is always very chill during our ultrasounds (and he was extra-stubborn yesterday) and the other baby is constantly moving, flipping, and kicking. They still have quite a bit of room, but they stay right next to each other. They had their heads touching through almost the entire ultrasound. We even got a shot of one baby's hand touching the other's head through the membrane. So sweet!

They're what's called di/di twins, which means they each have their own amniotic sac, chorionic sac, and placenta. Most di/di twins are fraternal, but identical twins can be di/di if the embryo splits early enough. We can already tell our boys look different. You can tell pretty clearly in the profile shots that their noses are not the same. I just hope at least one of them gets his daddy's blue eyes!

Most importantly, both of our boys are healthy and growing! We are so very blessed!
