First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage...

Then comes a baby in a baby carriage...

(In the beginning...)
Although, in our case-it's 2 babies in a baby carriage!
That's right-come August the Fitz Fam will be doubling...I'd look out if I were you!

(The gasp heard round the world-the day we found out there were 2)



(Currently, at 16 wks-all other pics are too distorted and/or alien-like to expose to anyone besides grandparents. But I figured feet were harmless.)

FAQ: Yes, they are fraternal. No, we don't know their genders yet. Yes, I was sick but now am feeling better. Due Aug. 29ish but are expecting them sooner. Yes, we will be getting 2 cribs eventually. No, we haven't picked names. Yes, we are nervous with excitement, fear, and anticipation every day. No, Ryan still doesn't want to change diapers. And yes, this is the greatest thing ever!

Wahoo! Just glad to see that the word is out and that all of you four are doing well.

Heather said...

I am sooooo happy for you! You two will make wonderful parents and I can't wait to hear what the genders will be. CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Yeah for babies however they may come to us!

Carlos said...

Hooray! Congratulations!

MJ/Mom/GrammaJ said...

WAHOO! Now that the word is out to the whole world and I can tell the other half I haven't already told!!! Except my other grandkids - mum's the word everyone. There have been so many prayers for you two and they have been answered times two! We can't wait. And Ryan....I will change diapers if you will.....! Maybe we can even get grandpa to do it. I picture a contest here...
Love from the happiest grandparents in the world.

OH MY GOSH! TWO! Twins! Double diapers! Half the half sleep! Oh it's so exciting. You guys are awesome and it's going to make for such a fun life.

mcampbell said...

So fun to see pictures!

I continue to be SO SUPER RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED about these new additions.

And Ry. I think it's about time we got serious about the cabin. I mean, if we are going to have these kids growing up with memories of spending every summer 'by the lake' or whatever, we better get moving. :)

Rachel B. said...

Are you kidding me?! That is the best news ever! Congratulations! Seriously, I bet you two couldn't be any more excited. And I think it goes unsaid that I can't wait to read about Ryan's adventures as a dad...and of twins! You guys are so cute. Yeah!!!

Kate said...

Oh my gosh! This made my whole weekend! I am thrilled beyond words for you!!!!! I've been wondering about this for months now! Glad to hear the announcement and happy to hear that the two teeny tiny ones are growing! Oh my gosh I can't even get over it! This is double good news for me. 1) I am so happy for you (have I said that already!!!) and 2) this gives me hope that maybe someday this could work for me too! I wish you a comfortable and event free pregnancy (meaning I hope everything goes smoothly and happens right on track)!!

Chrissy said...

Congratulations!! Twins is going to be so FUN!! I am so happy for you guys!!

lori said...

Hooray for happy announcements!! My heart continues to be overjoyed (but still anxious) about those two little babes!!

We love you guys so much. And we're with Michelle! Let's get the cabin rolling!

(remember when we almost bought that land on ebay???!)

heath said...

Amen to Lori and Michelle. Still so excited about all these unborn babies, and still anxious. I know things will be great. This is the year of miracles, right?

Allison Hollingsworth Deming said...

There is no one who deserves cute little squishy kidlets more! I am so excited for you guys, you are going to be great parents...and I am sure Ryan will eventually come around to changing diapers. If not I will sent him two pairs of salad tongs and let them use those...and a pack of latex gloves from work, just let me know what size. :) Congrats again!!!

wes said...

The Packer People are all rejoicing here in Bountiful!!!!

Dan Steinmetz said...

Good job! That's exciting news! We're happy for all 4 of you.

Livingstons said...

It's like I'm finding out all over again... I can't wait to see you!!!!

ROAST said...

So Ryan I started looking into the RV "World's largest" trip tonight. So far I've found "The big duck" in New York, America's tallest fountain in Phoenix, and what I think I would be the most excited about, but seems too far out of the way: The World's largest Santa Claus (North Pole, Alaska!) Can't wait for you, Amy, the twins, and us to go!

CL/Dad said...

We do not stop praying but can now focus those prayers on this wonderful news that you have been able to share. And just pray TWICE as hard as before! with double the excitement!

jeanine said...

YEA YEA YEA!!!!!!! We are so super excited for you! And TWO!!! Wow. This totally made my weekend... Amy, I hope you are feeling well... YEA!

Anna said...

Birding in Iowa said...

Horray!!! I am so excited for you guys. What a blessing. You'll be the best parents. I don't know what the cabin has to do with it, but I say, good idea! I'll race you to see who has a rustic, relaxing cabin first- winner gets to have the other ones over for the weekend... :) I love you guys. Good luck!

Sarah said...

um... that last comment was from me, Sarah. I didn't realize I was logged in under my husband's identity... but Alex would agree with everything I said.

The Wehrmeister's said...

I can't stop smiling! How great!
Congrats x 2!

nateandrebecca said...

Congratulations! That is WAY exciting! Seriously! Wow! Yay! And I definitely agree about the cabin thing...And Ryan, sometimes we all have to do things even when we don't want to.

Elise said...

YEAH! We are so excited for you! We've been meaning to have you guys over for a while. Are you feeling up to a night out? We'd love to babysit anytime too! YEAH!!!

Kristen said...

Okay I am a blog stalker. I found your blog once from Julie Miz and checked it out again today and look what I found. How exciting for you guys.

Hey Amy- I am so excited for you guys!!! Sounds like life in Vegas is treating you well- I hope you continue to feel well! We miss you-

Unknown said...

THANK YOU everyone!!!! We really appreciate all of the love and support and especially the prayers that have been offered in our behalf for years now. We will be sure to share these guys with all of you :)

Mary said...

Congratulations! I am sure you don't remember me ... but I am a friend of Jenny's and I was reading her blog and had to take the link "Twin Mania", because I have twins. I believe we lived in Regency apartments at the same time ... anyhow, congratulations! Twins are such an awesome blessing. The first 3 months will be a blur, but once you make it to a year ... that is when it really starts to get totally amazing! Good luck!
