Well, I went to my doctor's appointment yesterday. They could never hear Asher's heartbeat with their little monitor so I was hoping that I would have the same experience this time and get an ultrasound. I went in and she couldn't hear the heartbeat. I was excited. Matt had to train somebody at work so he couldn't come, but fortunately Matt's mom was in town so she came to watch Asher.
When the doctor started doing the ultrasound I thought, "What the heck?!?!" Then he showed me the baby and started showing me some membrane and I was all, "There's another baby on the other side of that membrane." Then he said, "Congratulations, you're having twins."
The crazy thing was that I already knew. I have been telling Matt for a couple of months now that I was having twins. I even told the nurse that I'd really like an ultrasound just to know if I'm having twins or not. I think that's why I noticed two babies so fast on the monitor because that's what I was looking for.
I can go on for hours. I could talk about having twins ALL day. Oh, I have! We're really excited. I've already made a plan out in my head for our lives. I just booked a vacation for our family and I think maybe in a month or two it might seem real to us (the twins, not the vacation).
We're hoping for a boy and a girl, but will of course be happy with any combination. If anyone wants to guess I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks. Also if anyone knows anything about having twins I'm ready to learn. Every spare minute I've been looking for as much information as I can on twins.

YAHOO!!!! Unbelievable!! I still can't believe it, but am soooooo excited for you guys. Maybe even moreso excited because I'm not the one to have twins :)
As one MOT (Mother of Twins) to another, hold onto your hats you two, you are in for a wonderful ride. I am so excited for you. I'll share my horror stores with you AFTER you get over your morning sickness!!! - Aunt Diann
You already know my prediction, I think you are having 2 more boys!! I guess we'll only have to wait a few more weeks to know!
CONGRATULATIONS!
I check your blog now and then to see how things are going with you and your family! That is truly exciting news!
Congrats Jaci!! Asher will love it! I'm predicting a boy and a girl for you too!
Congratulations! I am so excited for you.
Congrats!!!!! I am really excited for you. If you need anything let me know!!!
Yea!!! That is so awesome! i actually hoped that this was twins so that I wouldn't have to think about being pregnant again in the future. That is so exciting!
I am SO, SO, SO excited for you (in case you couldn't tell from me freaking out on the phone)!! Congratulations!
Congratulations! I hadn't heard you were pregnant but that's awesome you're having twins. So fun!
HOLY COW!!!! Jaci, twins?!? I pray that they are healthy and strong. I read that you were looking for twin experiences. Well, I have a good friend who blogs about her recent girls. We go walking about every morning so I get to hear her fun times. Sometimes the girls are on opposite schedules at night, so when one finally goes down the other one wakes. They were born just 4 days after my Gavin (so they are about 14 weeks old). Here is her blog address if you want to see her fun experiences (web.mac.com/steinerclan). She also says you are more than welcome to call her since she loves just talking about them! Let me know and good luck! Too bad you cannot 'bank' sleep. ;)
Hey Jaci...Congratulations!! I have wanted to talk to you since way before when Dave first told me you were pregnant, now with TWINS!! Very exciting, and I am glad you too are excited. Keep me posted and let me know if you need anything, I am way excited!
That is so awesome!! Congrats!
Holy cow I'm sooooo excited!! There is a couple in our ward that has twin boys and when I told them that you just found out that you were having twins they just looked at eachother and the husband said in a very monotone and tired voice "great...good for them." I'm sure it won't be nearly as tough for your guys though because you will have perfect kids!!;-)
We are so excited for you guys! I hope you at least get one girl in there. I am guessing one of each. We need to hang soon. Congrats!
I still can't believe it! Just don't name them Summer and Autum. Cause then their nick names will be Summer bummer and Autum bottom. Just name them Mary Kate and Ashley. Even if they are boys. It still fits!
Congrats! We are so excited for you guys. But I do have to say I'm glad its you not me. I have a hard enough time with one. We hope all continues to go well.
