Shortly after Shiloh turned six months old, Nikki felt the familiar morning sickness that she had felt while carrying her first child. She tried to brush it off as a touch of the flu--after all, she couldn't be pregnant again so soon after Shiloh's birth. After two weeks, however, Nikki thought that a second pregnancy might be a possibility. She took a pregnancy test and was shocked to find that it was positive. She told Andrew that night that she was expecting again. He was just as surprised as she had been, but excited about the prospect of being a new daddy once again.
Since Andrew still had 1 1/2 years of schooling left to get his doctorate, they decided that Nikki would work for as long as she was able--after all, she had just returned to work after four months of maternity leave. Andrew continued at his schooling and his part-time job. Nikki worked until her fifth month, but she started getting really tired. She asked her OB if there was something she could do to ease her fatigue. He said that he wasn't sure, and ordered an extra ultrasound to make sure that the baby was doing okay. To everyone's surprise, that second ultrasound showed that Nikki was carrying twins! Nikki continued working for another three weeks, then decided to call it quits.
Nikki enjoyed being home all day, especially since she had more time with Shiloh (who didn't have to go to the neighbors all day) and Andrew (whom she saw between his classes). Nikki went into labor one morning six weeks before the twins were due. The doctors had told her to expect a preterm delivery, but she and Andrew were still scared that something would be wrong with their babies. However, Ezra Johan and Jason Felix were both healthy little boys. They are fraternal twins--evidenced by Ezra's green eyes and baldness and Jason's brown eyes and head of brown hair. Andrew and Nikki were able to bring the boys home when they were two weeks old. Shiloh, who is now walking and climbing everything in sight, is intrigued by his little brothers. He doesn't like it when they cry, but he likes watching them eat and he enjoys touching their smooth baby skin. Rowan too, has taken the new babies in stride, just as he did when Shiloh was born.
