These pictures are really low quality because our scanner crapped out and I literally had to hold up the ultrasound photos to my webcam because they needed to get to my mom and dad as fast as possible.
On Friday we got to see the babies again at an extremely long ultrasound for which my husband had to sit in the waiting room for about an hour. One baby wouldn’t roll over for a good shot of the spine and heart and the other just generally would not stay still. It’s standard procedure, no dads while they take all the dozens of medically necessary images and measurements and then they can come in for the fun stuff like that’s a hand and that’s a heart and yes your kid’s head is suppose to be that big.
But the big news is, our kids are either not very modest or were caught off-guard by 7:30am appointment and gave us great gender confirmation. No you cannot tell in these pictures, we didn’t ask for those ones!
A whopping 12 of you can pat yourselves on the back for guessing right in the poll.
Here is our healthy little boy.
And his beautiful sister.


wow, that’s awesome! congratulations! such good news, I don’t even have a wise-crack for it. Maybe, I’ll be back to comment again later
Hey, this is a good tip for all guys: wisecrack-free comments can be great too! I’m pretty over the moon, can’t believe how blessed I am. Thanks for the well-wishes!
I’ve been telling all my Chinese students here in Hong Kong about the twins! I need better pictures though.
I know… they’re not good pictures. I think our scanner may be back in business so I will try again. Last time they were glossy so they were clearer – these are just on regular printer paper. I’ll try scanning them and emailing you that.
Hope you’re enjoying Hong Kong. We want to go someday so John can show me the family home and I can meet everyone. But I’m a bit nervous to be the “honored guest” as I know what kinds of food that will get you. And they don’t really take no for an answer!
Hope you’re surviving and discovering reasons to take Mom back.
The same as someone else had said what a great blog this is. Typically I dont bother with a remark however for your work you have earned one. Congrats
I really would like to express that I have found your blog post extremely beneficial! You’ve got much insight and details here which has really helped me personally complete my school paper!
