They Are...
"Gemma is coming right?" I asked putting my wallet in my purse and placing it on the table. I took a seat leaning back and rubbing my hand over my belly. We finally get to know what these little buggars are.
Well, we don't, Gemma and Anne do.
"Yeah, then she will meet Mum somewhere so they can get the paint. I have a feeling they might stock the closet up too." He chuckled and placed some scrambled eggs on my plate along with some bacon, ketchup, and grape jelly. This has been my favorite breakfast most of this week.
"I think to celebrate, we should have a movie night with everyone." I say taking a bite of eggs with jelly. He nodded and pulled out his phone I'm guessing sending out a quick text. "Oh," I cleared my throat. "you know I've never seen a photo of us at the doctors? How come?"
Harry's shoulder lifted then went back down, "I don't know. But that reminds me I need to check and ask if we can come through the back today, just in case." He unlocked his phone once again finding the office number then holding it to his ear. I tore off a piece of bacon and shoved it in my mouth, just then there was a knock on the door. I stood up and scurried over as fast as I could to let them in.
Gemma stood there with her arms crossed but once she saw my face an uncontrollable smile graced her face. She stepped into the house and pulled me into her arms.
"I am so excited!" She squealed. I laughed at her excitement just as Harry came back in the room.
"Well, are your little girls ready to go?" He asked. as he placed his brown fedora on his head and grabbed his keys off the table.
"Yes!" We both cheered. Harry just shook his head and chuckled at our childish ways before leading us out to the car.

I was laying on my back, shirt up waiting for the Doctor to come in. Harry's massive hand was rubbing my belly and it was obvious he was in deep thought. Gemma was sitting on the other side of him bouncing her leg up and down. Harry leaning forward and kissed the exposed area before giving me small nervous smile.
Just then the doctor cam barging in.
"Hello young ones." He greeted, we all smiled and said hello. "So I heard we had an emergency hospital trip a few weeks ago?" He asked while he set up the monitors and all.
"Yeah, I have a feeling we are going to have a very fat baby." I said patting my left side. The doctor nodded in agreement. He explained everything he was going to do today and them started to prep me with gel, smearing it all over my mid section. He took the wand and turned it on, just then the screen lit up with a black and white picture of the babies.
"Well, this one has grown some since we last checked on them." He said as he examined the baby on the right. "And your right, this one probably will be a little chubby." He laughed looking at the baby on the left. "Now for the big question, do you want to know the sex?"
"She does, we don't." Harry answered pointing to Gemma. The doctor nodded and turned the screen away from us.
"Well come on over here and I will show you." Gemma did as he said and walked over to his side so that he can show her the genders. He kept his arm stretched out so the wand was in the middle of my belly while he pressed a few buttons.
"Baby A is," He paused and then pointed to the screen. Gemma's face broke into a big smile. "And Baby B is," He pressed another button before pointing to the screen again. This time Gemma's hand flew to her mouth and I could see some tears in her eyes. She looked over at us and shook her head.
"I can't believe this." She smiled. I smiled back and then turned to Harry.
"I want to know now." I whined and he chuckled before pecking my lips. He smoothed my hair down and sighed.
"I think we can wait a few more months."

Gemma's POV:
I was sitting out side the store on a bench with my drink in hand, looking at the black and white picture. I told Harry to go a head and drop me off in town so Mum could meet me here and we can shop.
"Gemma?" I looked up and saw my mum walking towards me. I smiled and scooted over so she could sit. "So, what are they?" I smiled then handed her the ultrasound picture. It took her a few seconds but once she saw the little letters indicating which was which she jumped for joy.
"Oh! I can't believe this! I don't know who is going to be happier, Leah or Harry." I nodded in agreement, still lost for words.
"You can keep that picture, I have one for me and one for them that we can frame." She nodded and folded the picture putting it in her wallet. "Well, I think we need to go buy them some clothes."
Mum agreed so we made our way to the baby store just a few feet away.
"We probably need to go a head and buy, bottles, binkies, blankets. We might can go a head and buy some dippers and all that stuff. The last thing we need is clothes." She said I nodded and grabbed a trolley and followed her down the isle as she searched for the things she wanted to get.
"Should we get four bottles or six?" She asked turning around to me.
"We can start them off with four." Mum nodded and picked out a few plain baby bottles. She also picked up a package of replaceable nipples. "I'm sure Harry will have fun with those." I mumbled under my breath but Mum heard and whipped around slapping my arm.
"Be nice! Do I need to remind you about the time that you took all of the n-"
"No! Okay, I get it." I laughed, stopping her before she could bring up that very embarrassing and inappropriate moment in my childhood.
I saw a couple of nice burp rags as well and asked permission before adding them to the pile of items. Mum also threw in matching gray blankets. One side had a spotted texture and the other side was just fuzzy. I kow the twins will love them. Once we know their names we will get them printed on them, but for now It will be a nice decoration for the room.
"Now, lets stock up on some clothes. Just a few things to get them started once they get home from the hospital, then we can really shop." She smiled at me clapping her hands together. I have never seen her this happy besides when robin proposed, her wedding, and when Hary was born. It's been a while.
"Oh, Look at this little thing!" She pulled a hanger of the rack and held it up for me to read. The quote on it was adorable. It will compliment Leah and Harry too. We also found a pair with one that said "CTRL C" and the other said "CTRL V".
"It's cute but too cliche." Mum said so I put it back and we continued our search.
By the end of the shopping trip we had our srms loaded down with bags full of crap for the babies. We loaded them in the car before we decided at the last minute to go a head and but a few gallons of paint.
We stood in front of the colors trying to decide on what shade to get.
"No that's too dark, she said she wanted it a lighter shade. I think this one would be better." I grabbed the lighter shade sample and held in front of both of us.
"Oh, what if we did like an ombre kind of thing on the wall?"
I looked at her like she just grew two heads. "Mum, it's not like the kids will know what Ombre is so why do it. I think solid color will satisfy them just as much."
She nodded as I shot down her idea and she asked for two gallons of the color I picked out.
These babies better be happy once they pop out.
((Didn't really know how to end this chapter lol, sorry. What do you thing the genders are?))
