It's a...

Many of you know that Frances is an ultrasound technician. What a fun job, huh? Well, she went back to work on Tuesday and did an ultrasound on herself. Can’t you just picture that? She is obviously very good at reading ultrasounds, but couldn’t believe what she saw. She asked a friend/co-worker to come over and take a look to confirm. She saw the same thing. Then she asked another friend/co-worker to also take a look. She saw the same thing.

To quote Frances… “It’s a girl…and another girl!”

She has felt pretty certain that one would be a girl, but was thinking that the other one was a boy. (They’re obviously fraternal.) Ryan has informed Frances and Marc that he wants them to have a girl. Just as we’ve all talked about…probably to minimize the competition. :) Ryan loves his Uncle Marc, and enjoys the rough-and-tumble activities and sports that they do together. He’s pretty happy that it appears that will continue.

So here they are…the first pictures of my nieces…

It’s interesting that they already look so different. Frances says that this baby definitely has the Anderson nose – long and straight.
Frances thinks that this baby has the Inman nose – shorter (Sheesh! Even our noses are shorter!), with a little slope up at the end.
And here they are both squished together.Marc is a little apprehensive. (“I don’t know what to do with GIRLS!”) We all know that he’s a softie deep down, and will be totally smitten. As Mom said, “You love them!”
