Fetal Fotos....DOUBLE TROUBLE!

So on Saturday Dan took me to Fetal Fotos to find out the gender of our unborn baby. She put the ultrasound wand on my stomach, and this is what we saw-
Yep.....TWINS! When we first saw the screen, we looked at each other and thought "There are sure a lot of limbs in there." The ultrasound tech looked at us and said, "You know you are having twins, right?" We were shocked. I couldn't stop laughing. She stopped and let us let it all sink in. We proceeded to look for the genders. One of them was a show off, always in the picture. We found out pretty quickly that she was a girl. Then we looked and tried to find out the gender for the second one. But the baby never opened its legs and the cord was between its legs. So, fetal fotos let us come back today (Monday). Both were show offs today. It is so crazy to see two babies in there kicking and scrambling around each other. They're already squished! It wasn't long until we saw both genders......TWO GIRLS! We are so excited!!! Our world is definitely going to change. We have a whole lot to think about. We for sure need a new car because we can't fit 3 car seats in the Matrix. That's just the beginning! We're gonna be seeing a whole lot of pink in the future. Poor Makai! I hope he can deal with two sisters at once. I know he'll love them.
