Gender Reveal

We found out today what gender our twins are!! I nervous because I knew Addy wanted a sister and Boston told us that if we had two girls he would "go in his room and cry."  All four of us headed to the hospital as soon as Addy got out of school. We were all excited and nervous. I had called Lin's Marketplace earlier that day and asked them to make two cakes (one for each baby) and make the filling either pink or blue if it was a girl or boy.  The babies looked very healthy and naturally the girl (baby A) was moving all over the place.  The kids were so fascinated to see the babies.  We told the ultrasound tech about our intention to not find out and so when it came time to find out the gender of the babies and check their parts, she turned the screen off so we couldn't see.  We gave the ultrasound tech the number to Lin's and an hour later Travis went to pick up the cakes (we were both afraid I would peek).  It was so hard for me to not know, but he was determined not too.  Grandma and Grandpa Rowley, Lucas and Candace, Brennan and Lindsey, and Jenny and Sterling were all here.  We skyped with Susie, Monica, and Nick and Bridgette.  Addy and I cut the first cake together.  It was a BOY!!!!  I was completely relieved.  Travis and Boston cut the other cake open and it was a GIRL!!!  Each of us in our family felt so overwhelmed with happiness and relief!  The score is even and we couldnt/wouldnt have wanted it any other way.  We are so excited for a brother and sister to join our family.  Now the preparations begins!!!
