A Special Surprise: Twin boys

My husband and I married on March 26, 2005 and decided on having a baby right away. On September 15, 2005, our doctor told us that our wish had come true. I never thought I could be so happy in my entire life. A baby, God had answered my prayers. Then on the Saturday before Thanksgiving we went to the hospital to have our first Ultrasound and there we got the most surprising news ever:  we were having TWINS!!!!!!

I couldn't believe it.  My husband and I just held each other and cried. I know that a multiple pregnancy is high risk, so I went on line and looked up everything I could about a twin pregnancy.  Luckily my pregnancy couldn't have gone better. I was able to carry my 2 baby boys full term for 38 weeks and on April 19, 2006 via C-section Jorden or baby A was born at 10:44 am weighing 5lbs 3ozs., 18 inches, and Jayden, baby B was born at 10:46am weighing 4lbs 12ozs., 18 inches. We stayed in the hospital for three days then we were all able to come home together. I thank God every day for this blessing he has given our family.  

Clarissa.
