Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are officially parents/ Carey delivered their baby girl and baby boy on April 30th - a birthday that also marks the couple's three year wedding anniversary.
The babies' names have not yet been released, but Carey's rep Cindi Berger reports that the baby girl was born first weighing in at 5 pounds, 3 ounces, and her brother weighed in at 5 pounds, 6 ounces. Both babies will have a nice place to rest their heads since Carey worked with A-list interior decorators to create an extravagant nurseries for them.
The couple had long struggled to conceive, and in November of 2010 Carey suffered a miscarriage. "We definitely cried" upon learning of her successful pregnancy, Cannon told Us. "We still cry all the time. It's an emotional journey."
These are the first children for Cannon, 30, and Carey, 41, and the pop diva plans to stop with just these two, according to AP.
But the couple is ecstatic about the twin's arrival and Cannon was so nervous when Carey was in labor that he apparently went to the wrong department of the undisclosed Los Angeles hospital, and had to be guided to the maternity ward.
"It was like right out of an 'I Love Lucy' skit," said Berger.
