Just the 5 of Us!!?!!

Funny how counting from one to two doesn't seem like a big deal with most things in life....
"should I buy one or two loaves of bread?",
"the place is just one or two blocks past that last stoplight",
"we were only one or two minutes late"....
But when you're expecting to see a small miracle on a black and white screen, that jump from one to two is one of the most life-changing moments you can imagine.
"well, here's one baby and (big pause) here's another baby"
Above is Baby Alpha :) The head is on the right looking up and the small dot beneath the chin is a little hand.
This is Baby Beta:) The head is on the left and looking down.

2 placentas look like they're probably fraternal, and we'll have to wait until early Oct. to find out the genders, so you can start placing your bets now:)

WOW! It is so amazing to see the ultrasound pics of them both! I am thinking and praying for you guys during this transition. Congratulations!

It is unbelievable how much you can see of those little babies- they are still so young! I think that Alpha's thumbs-up sign is awesome. "See, mommy and daddy? It's all good!"
