I feel like I have been bursting at the seams for the last few months. The cat’s out of the bag now, so I guess you can all know that…
The Husband and I are extremely elated to be welcoming TWINS (!!!!) this fall!
I will be back tomorrow with some exciting details.
The color of the shoes is not telling of anything – I just wanted to be equitable.

Oh I’m dying in excitement for you! And your due right after me! Late summer/early fall babies!!! How have you been feeling? Hopefully NOT plague-ish! Lol
haha except for the last 24 hours, I’ve felt really good. I’ll talk about my little “scare” a little more in my next week’s post, but I was in the ER last night with some incredibly bad pains and vomiting. It was incredibly frightening. Thankfully it was just round ligament pain as well as a touch of the flu. But if that was round ligament pain, I’m going to diiiiieeeee giving birth. Holy hell.
Oh nooooo!!!!! That was me last week! Yeah if that’s not a giant temptation to get an epidural I don’t know what is! Lets fast forward to October
congrats! thats so fun
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been following your blog for a while now and couldn’t be happier to see this news! Congratulations…twins! Eeek!

I have been a long-time blog reader and have never commented on a single blog before. However, I have watched your struggle to get pregnant and have checked your blog compulsively, waiting for the day for you to post an announcement like this. We don’t know each other, but I couldn’t possibly be happier for you and your family - you so, so, so deserve this! Congratulations!!
Thank you!!! You’re going to make me cry - watch out for these hormones!
Yeh for babies! Can’t wait to hear all about it.
I’m a retired teacher who has been reading your blog for ages. I am so happy for your wonderful news. Having children was the best thing my hubby and I ever did. I wish you much joy and love.

I’ve been reading your blog for a longggg time and recently, I started to get a feeling we would see a post like this!! I am SOOOO happy for you and your husband!! Congratulations! Reading your posts about your struggles with this and now seeing this post, I am so so so glad this has happened for you! Congrats again, and good luck! I’ll be following along.

OH…MY…GOODNESS!!! So exciting and so happy for you!!!!! September is a great birthday month. Mine is 9/3 and my son’s is 9/11. My daughter is expecting my second grandchild in September also!
My husband’s is 9/3! We actually would love to schedule our c-section for that day. I’ll be about 37 weeks! It would be doubly cool because I have the same birthday as MY dad! It could be passed down another generation!
Virgos are good people! That would be very cool!
omg yayayayy!!! I am so excited for you especially after all that you’ve been through!! I will be keeping you and The Husband in my thoughts and prayers and can’t wait to hear all about your planning and excitement as you prepare for September
Congrats!
Brittany

Congratulations! Such amazing news and you most definitely deserve it, I can’t wait to hear more!
Long time reader, first time commenter….CONGRATULATIONS! I have a twin sister and she is my favorite thing in the whole wide world. Your kiddos are very very lucky for lots of reasons, but especially because they have a best friend from day 1. It’s so special

I totally knew it #imnotastalker

Oh, that is SOOO exciting! It’s also amazing to me the sense of community in the blog world. I reall don’t know you, but just from the few interactions we’ve had and reading your blog, I am so excited for you, and perhaps even did a “Ohhhhh” and smiled real bg when I read your post! Amazing little miracle x2!
Awww! LOVE the picture
I made a comment saying that I had a feeling you might be pregnant not too long ago, and based on your reply, I figured you weren’t, and then I felt terrible! So glad my hunch was right after all. Congratulations!!!! and TWINS! 
hahahaha I’m SO sorry - I laughed when I saw that comment. I had to come up with something to say!!
How exciting!!! I am an avid reader, but I never comment. BUT I HAD to comment on this! I hope you are doing well!! How exciting to be having twins!
Wow, Twins!! That’s so exciting!
Congrats again Chels!! I am so stinking excited for you! You guys are going to make amazing parents!
Yea Chels!!!!
Welcome to the club!
Twins are a riot.
If you have any ?s. feel free to email me! I’m so excited for you!
I had a planned c section and it was great! REALLY.
Aw thanks! I will definitely need some advice along the way. Any good book recs?
Congrats!!! I’m also expecting twins right now (due aug 24). Hope you are feeling okay, the first 15 weeks were rough for me. Looking forward to following your journey!!
Yay for more twinsies!!!
OMIGOODNESS! This is so exciting!! Can’t wait to hear more about it and follow your journey! Congratulations!!
Yahoooo! Congratulations! I have no idea why, but I just had a feeling that you were pregnant. I can’t put my finger on the reason, but I just had a feeling. So exciting!!!!
Amazing news…. Congratulations!!!
Not one, but TWO surprises?!?!!? I am ecstatic for you. When I saw Tina’s tweet I got goosebumps. So hapy.
So happy I can’t spell happy.
Yay!!! So happy for you guys
Congratulations! I’m so excited for you and can’t wait to hear more details. Hope you’re feeling well!
Eeeek! Congratulations times two, Chelsey! I’m so happy for you! That’ll be three children already with Charlie then
.
Congratulations!! So, so excited for you
Congratulations! I am so happy for you even though I don’t know you. Although I KNEW you were pregnant and you denied it vehemently!
Having children is the most rewarding and wonderful thing that has ever happened to me. The happiest days of my life revolve around knowing I was pregnant with my first son on Christmas day 1996, giving birth to my first daughter in 1999 and watching my second daughter grow into a mini-me….it’s been a blur of 16 years for me. Time really does fly by when you have children so remember to document it all, cherish the small, daily moments and love them fiercely. The first 6 weeks are hard, but they pass very quickly and the rest is complete joy!
Sincere congratulations!
OMG, Chelsey! Congratulations! Doubly blessed!
Congratulations!!!
I’ve been a reader of your blog for a while now and just had a feeling that you were pregnant! This is so incredibly exciting and congratulations to you and your family!
Omgosh!!!!!!!!!!! I am SO happy for you and have tears of joy. You deserve those little babies! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What great news! Congratulations!
Congratulations! My husband and I were blessed enough to bring twins into this world almost two years ago. They are definitely a double blessing! Wishing you a healthy and happy pregnancy!
thrilled for you! so much joy ahead. enjoy every moment!
Congratulations! That is awesome news!
OHMYGOSH!!! i have read your blog for awhile now and know that this is a long time coming. CONGRATS!!! so very happy for you guys!!!!
Yay! I’m so excited for you. I just had my 3rd (2nd natural delivery at home after C-section the first time). You could totally do a natural birth with twins (if you wanted), your body was made to give birth and you are in good shape. I just read an article saying Natural birth is just as safe as c-section for twins. You are going to be a great mom!
I recommend Ina Mayes guide to childbirth and watching the business of being born (netflix). I wish I had seen it before my section.
So so happy for you!
Yay! Congratulations to you both! I know we don’t know each other but I am so happy for you! You guys will be awesome parents seeing how much you love your job! I have b/g twins who are five now. It gets better and better with them, and they have an awesome bond!
Oh my goodness! Double the fun! Congratulations!

haha thankfully I’m probably going to be having a planned c section. I always thought I could handle natural childbirth but ummmmm yeah I don’t know about that.
That is the thing with having children, we are constantly shown that actually, we can handle more than we thought.
All the best with the pregnancy and delivery.
