boys, girls, 1 of each?
Well, in fact, we know the answer, or at least we think. I went to the doc today and was hoping to find out the sexes, but really didn't think it would happen. This thought was confirmed when I asked the ultra-sound tech and she said things like, "do you think I'm a miracle worker?", and "these babies are only 2 ounces!". My hopes of finding out were crushed. Nate was about to leave when a nurse came in and said, "how are the twins?" The tech said, "they look great, and I think I know what one of them is." My jaw dropped. She looked like she was considering not telling us when finally she said, well, I'm pretty sure baby "B" is a boy! I was thrilled. And then she kept looking at baby "A" and said she is pretty sure it is a girl. 1 of each. yay. I really hope she is right. A little girlfriend for Ada and another boy for Will (and Nate honestly, and me too, I must confess). I'll feel all the more convinced in a month when this is confirmed, but the tech did actually seem quite confident and Nate and I both saw something hanging between the legs. Now, on to names and nursery colors... (you can pray for Nate and I to agree on a boy name- we have, humhum, different tastes).

How fun Shannon!
so exciting. bryan and i are praying for you guys. when's the big move? :(
I almost felt a twinge of jealously there for a moment... Boy/girl twins. And names!! I'd have a hundred babies just to name them. :) Luckily my hubby didn't have strong opinions and I got to choose. :) I'd offer you a few from my list, but I'm guessing you have plenty to work with.
Heh-heh... Well since you *asked*... :) I'll start with the girl names that sadly went unused in our family of boys: Colette (#1 name on the list all three pregnancies, sigh), Wren, Sylvie, Wilder, Rilla, and Annika. Boys names: (I'm partial to Levi, Luke, and Leif (pronounced 'Lafe'), of course), Swift, Helm, Byrne, Sawyer, Orien, and Simeon. At least that's a few to get you started. :) I must say that I love the names you've chosen for your first three children, and whatever names you choose, I'm sure they will be lovely!
Sigh...My German aunt and uncle were twins and I secretly hoped I'd follow in my grandmother's footsteps.
Hey, btw, did you and Heidi connect via my blog or...? I'm experiencing small world syndrome here! : )
I did originally follow one of your comments on Colleen's blog over here. Your photography drew me in, and I keep coming back. :) Hope that's okay!
