The Short of It
What are the odds? A Wisconsin family with two sets of adopted twins just welcomed another pair into the family, and all six kids have the exact same birthday!
The Lowdown
Carrie Kosinski grew up in a big family, so the Wisconsin mom wanted to have a lot of kids of her own. "I had always wanted like 18 children," she told WITI TV. "That was my number."

After doctors told her she'd have a hard time getting pregnant on her own; however, Kosinski and her husband Craig decided to adopt two sets of twins from the same mother.
"I was adopted," she said. "So prior to us getting married, I had talked to [Craig] about adopting because that was always on my heart."

But then, with the help of doctors, Carrie DID wind up getting pregnant! She gave birth to twin daughters this past February—more than 10 weeks premature. Each weighed only 1 pound, 6 ounces, and they're still at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. And get this: their Feb. 28 birthdate is the same as the birthdays of the Kosinski's other two sets of twins.
The Upshot
Six kids, all twins, all born on the exact same day. Pretty cool, right? Can you even imagine what birthday parties are going to be like in the Kosinski house? So much fun!

And the couple may not be done. Because their family is pretty girl-heavy, Carrie and Craig say that they wouldn't mind trying for another boy.
They better get a move on if they want another Feb. 28 baby!
