Mariah Carey [photos] and Nick Cannon celebrated their third anniversary with the birth of a baby girl and boy.
The Grammy winning singer first thought her labor pains were another in a string of false alarms. But she quickly realized it was the real deal and gave birth to the couple's 5-pound, 3-ounce baby girl and then her 5 pounds, 6 ounces brother by C section.
Cannon was reportedly so nervous that he went to the wrong department at the hospital, and was guided to the maternity ward by a nurse.
"It was like right out of an 'I Love Lucy' skit," says Carey's representative, Cindi Berger.
The children, who have not yet been named, are the for the 41-year-old Carey who was expecting shortly after their marriage in 2008, but suffered a miscarriage.
"My wife just gave me the most incredible anniversary gift ever in life!," Cannon says on Twitter. "I won't ever be able to top this!".
