I'm the grandmother of 10 year old boys, Brandon and
Bradley. This story is from before they were born.
Actually it is from before the brother before them
was born - he is 18 days short of being a year older
than the twins.
My daughter (their mother) was working at a hospital
and at the time they were promoting ultrasounds and
they asked her if she wanted to do one. she did and
somehow they took the image of the one baby and
flipped it upside down and made it appear as if
there were two babies.
So, she took it home and showed her husband and just
about the time he started to calm down she told him
it was a joke. We all thought that was so funny!
Well that baby was born a single and a couple of
months later they were over with the kids and my
son-in-law said "I think we are pregnant again."
My daughter was sent to get an ultrasound to see how
far along and that is when she was told she was
having twins. She began to cry. When she got
back to my house I could tell something was wrong. I
asked her about it and she stared to cry again. She
said she was having twins. I said it was okay and
she said her husband wasn't ever going to believe
her after the trick she had played on him from the
last baby.
