We're having a ....

Well our 18 week appointment was this morning, and we found out the sexes. We are having a boy AND a girl!!! I just can't believe it. It's too perfect. We are SO excited. My sisters and my parents (along with Brent of course) were in the ultrasound room, and we were all in tears. It's been a long journey to get to this point, and I just feel such unbelievable joy. The most important part of today is that the babies measured right on target and everything looked perfect. They both weigh 7 ounces and are growing more every day. I feel like I have really blossomed (that's a nice way to put it, huh?) over the last week. As for names, Brent has a favorite girl name and I have a favorite boy name, so we are getting to use them both. The girl will be Addison and the boy will be Maddox. We haven't decided on middle names yet. But I'll keep everyone posted. It's a great day!
