In the beginning....

After finding out we were expecting twins, I thought a blog would be a great idea to keep up with pictures and other happenings at the P household.

I went in for a routine ultrasound on Tuesday, January 25th. I encouraged Matt to stay at home with the girls as I thought it was going to be just that...routine. As soon as the ultrasound tech put the wand to my stomach I immediately saw two little Ps in their own separate sacs and was overcome with emotions. This was such a blessing in more ways than one. When I found out I was pregnant I wondered if I would be done having children after this third. Or would I want a fourth child down the road? God answered our prayers by giving us a "two for one" deal so I only have one more pregnancy to go through but a nice even number of 4 children :) I showed Matt the picture of "our baby" when I got home and his face immediately turned white when he turned to me and said "there's two there!". We had a celebration dinner later that night with my parents and everyone reacted with surprise! Trust me, we were just as surprised as you!

The big sisters are doing well and Maddie continually asks when she can hold my babies. I have been feeling great and am looking forward to some Spring weather so we can be more active and play outside. What a surprise this pregnancy and now two babies has been but nothing is ever dull at our household!
