12. Biggo double congrats, my dear Highway61!
Is it your daughter or daughter-in-law?

And do they know what they're having?

You WILL have a ball!

13. Thank you Peggy
It is my daughter... She is 3 months and the ultrasound shows two. I still can't believe it. There is zip in the way of twins in our family history. Looking back...this is nothing short of a miracle. (too early to tell whay the sex is yet...but they want to know...unlike me when I was expecting...but that was in the "old" days :) We wanted to be surprised. Thank you again

14. I'm so happy for you!
She's probably carrying fraternal (two egg) twins. Those are the most common. Identical twins come from one egg that splits into two identical babies...

But you never know!

Once they know what sex the babies are, they will have a much better idea whether or not these are fraternal or identical twins!

Obviously, a boy and a girl would be fraternal...

Either way, it will be wonderful!

19. Having a grandbaby is like going on a first date with the hottest person in the world!
When my grandson was born 7 years ago, before I went to visit, I'd put on makeup and perfume -- like he'd know! Your heart thumps, you get teary-eyed. It's absolutely disgusting but oh! so wonderful!
