Our FAQ:

Do you have names for the babies?

Yes, we do. But we’re not telling until they’re etched in stone on the birth certificate.

Where are you registered?

We put items from all over the web on myregistry.com. If it asks you to sign in, just type nothanks@mcphaull.com.

Do twins run in your families?

Yes. Fraternal twins, like ours, are the only type of genetically influenced twins. And they are influenced only by the mother’s genes. Did you want to know all that?

How do you plan to lose the weight after pregnancy?

You’ve got to be kidding me.

Are y’all done having babies?

Only God knows. All I know is that I will need a nice long break from pregnancy after the twins. I want to be able to play with the kids and do more than just sit with my feet propped up blowing bubbles. This pregnancy is kickin’ my behind. I still have dreams of an international adoption. Also, the next car that would accomodate us would be a 15-passenger church-style van.

Speaking of cars, please get an SUV instead of a minivan.

We’re getting a minivan. We will now officially be “those people.”  But it’s the sensible thing to do (Do you know gas is $2.45 and rising in Cali? Do you know SUVs cost more? Do you know the only SUVs that can accommodate 3 car seats and a big-mama stroller are the Suburban large ones?). We’ve done the research. We trust you’ll love us in spite of our uncoolness.

Are you having the babies at the birth center?

Unfortunately not. The same doctor who delivered Maxton will deliver the twins (if he’s out of town, all bets are off) and Tonya, my midwife, will be with us. Please pray that the doctor remembers that we’re having twins on the day of delivery. He seems to forget during our office visits.

So, besides healthy babies and a drug-free birth, what is your one wish for labor day?

Okay, so no one’s really ever asked me this question, but… I REALLY want a birth photographer.
