The couple had stopped trying to have a baby on their own when they started the adoption process. But when Lauren began feeling sick while vacationing on a week-long safari in Tanzania, Akins suggested she take a pregnancy test.
She was convinced it was just food poisoning but took a pregnancy test just to be sure and was expecting a negative result. But to her surprise, the test came back positive and she was over the moon. Akins, who was in complete shock, suddenly felt they were having twins, and he was not prepared.
It was definitely a blessing for the couple. They now have 2 more daughters, Ada James, and Lennon Love, and couldn’t be happier.
