I had my 14 week appointment yesterday and didn't have to ask for an ultrasound. I knew it was almost too early to tell, but I asked for him to look to see the genders of the babies. He didn't fight me on it (though I thought he would) and they both look like boys! He said that girls can be swollen at this point, so he's not 100% sure. I'll have another ultrasound at 18 weeks and he said we should know by then.
It was amazing to watch them move. The last few ultrasounds I have had were just the heart beat in the middle of a circular shape. This time, we saw the spine, and they were moving. In fact, I saw the lower one (baby A, sort of on top of baby B) hit baby B above him and baby B quickly responded with a jab. It was hilarious. They are already getting along!
Doug and I are both so excited. I was pretty surprised because I thought it would be a boy and girl, but we are thrilled. It feels a lot more real now. I don't have much a belly to post photos of, but will do it soon.

Oh my goodness!!! We are beyond thrilled for you! Boys are too much fun!
Yay.. more boys! Our kids will be close cousins and to add a plus in there, they'll all be the same gender!!
wahoo! glad to see they are doing well, I will remain an optimist until 18 weeks, although it will be fun to have some boy cousins for Jake and Spence.
WOW, I cannot believe it! I bet my little girl will have a crush on BOTH you're boys! I'm so excited for you two!
