The gumballs were right!!

Hey everyone! Last night was amazing, as expected, and today is even better because now we are officially anticipating the arrival of our SON and our DAUGHTER! The gumballs were right, as were a lot of the rest of you who voted - thanks for your input, it was fun to see what people guessed. I know that I said we weren't going to post the results until after Saturday, but we all know that I can't keep my mouth shut and a lot of the people who I talk to on a regular basis just wouldn't take no for an answer last night, so of course I spent a good amount of time on the phone last night and this morning. :) We are so happy, and what's strange is that my gut feeling after the 12 week ultrasound was right - Baby A is a girl, and Baby B is a boy! And how crazy is it that the gumballs from Dave and Buster's were right?! I'm just so excited that we finally know! We could not be happier and we can't wait to meet our little girl and little boy. I'm relieved in some ways, actually, because I know that being different sexes will just allow them be their own people that much more, with their own interests and personalities.... My hope is that they will, even through cats-and-dogs fighting they will be allies and the best of friends. We will instill in them, even though it's natural for brothers and sisters to bicker, to love and respect each other no matter what. We have so much to look forward to, I am seriously bursting at the seams with joy.... Sure, we have our work cut out for us, but neither of us are scared of work, and it will be the most fun (and challenging, I know) work I've ever done. Have a great afternoon everyone, I might not post again until after I'm 30. :) 3 red roses for 3 years of marriage..... whoa our 50th is going to break the bank just in roses!Happy 3rd anniversary mommy and daddy! (Holy eyebrows Batman..... someone should have brushed those beasts for him before we left the house....)
