Boston Family Expecting Third Generation of Identical Twins

Only three percent of births result in twins in the United States, and the odds of having identical twins are three in 1,000. One family has made those odds seem downright illogical. CBS Boston reported a fun story about three sets of identicals in the same family.

It all began with Eileen, a twin herself, who gave birth to another set of twins. Now, one of those sons and his wife are welcoming baby twin girls as well! As soon as they arrive, the Christopher family will have three twin generations in Plymouth. It’s funny how every generation has been the opposite sex of the one that proceeded it. Maybe one of the twin girls will eventually have a set of boys!

In the video of the news report, it’s clear that the loving family is thrilled to be part of such a fun and interesting legacy.
