The other 6 grandkids don't approve of adding grandson #7 as well as grandkids # 8 & 9. All that means is much less budget from grandparents for Christmas , tooth fairy , and birthday gilts for them . :th

Kids are so wonderfully transparent about their greed, haha.

Fraternal twins can be linked to genetics, identicals are just a double miracle.
Congrats @bobm ! Best of luck to mom and dad, a bit of work for a while, but what a joy!

The way dh likes to spoil the grands, I think he would be considering a second job! :hide

Well, that sure is spacing out the family. Unless it was sorta planned, wow, surprise surprise is putting it mildly! Great help there though, and a good experience for teens. :)

Spacing ... my mother had my brother 5 years after I was born, then my sister 10 months later, then my baby brother when I was 15 ... I guess our daughter is taking a page from her Grandmother ! :hu

Yesterday, our daughter had some pain in her R lower side. Whent in to doctor... slight bladder infection, was put on antibiotics and an ultrasound was ordered for bladder, urethra, appendix, and uterus today . Daughter gets an hour and 1/2 ultrasound , gets dressed, and starts to go home. Nurse stops her, and back to ultrasound she goes... tecknitian forgot to check the appendix. Dr. checks out the ultrasound while our daughter is waiting in the waiting room. She is called back into the exam room and Dr. puts her on bed rest because the twin's placenta is attached at the very bottom R of the uterus which causes the twins to put pressure on the bladder which in turn may cause other bladder infections. So daugher will have to apply for disability assistance since she can't work for now. Daughter said that at the start of the ultrasound that both baby "A" and baby "B" were sucking their thumbs. At the end of the 2 hours, baby "A" started to yawn and stretch out it's arms. "All right already I'm bored and want to take my nap again ". :caf

Our daughter set up an ultrasound photoshoot for the twins for yesterday afternoon. The identical twin Playmates were seen romping in their birthday suits in their luxurious Penthouse. There were enough photos taken to fill out a magazine spread with a centerfold. :celebrate NO... I will NOT include photos as they will remain private. Child porn law thingy you know ! :old
