Tara and Tommy Watson will be parents to the sixth set of quadruplets in Alberta.
What’s even more remarkable — Tara’s second cousin is the mother of the Webb quadruplets born in 2016.
“I never, ever would’ve expected, knowing that there were quads in the family, that it would ever happen to us, but I did always want a big family when I started dating Tommy and I guess we’re going to get it,” said Tara.
“If my mom was still alive, she would be so proud to have them in the family,” said Greg Sereda, Tara’s dad.
Their family and friends got together to find out the genders of the babies on Friday. Tara and Tommy revealed they’ll be having two girls and two boys.
