There are 2 types of messages that your iPhone/iPad can send: SMS and
iMessage. If you have iMessage turned on, then any message sent to you
also goes to all of your devices which are on the same account,
regardless of phone number. (My iPad doesn't have a phone number but it
gets my iMessages along with my iPhone). If the messages are SMS
messages, they go only to the specific device identified by the phone
number. That's why your husband has gotten some but not all of the
messages intended for you -- since his iPad Mini is set up on your
iTunes account, any messages sent as iMessages from others will go to
his Mini as well as your iPhone and iPad. If the messages from others
are sent as SMS messages, only your iPhone will get them.
On my iPhone, iMessages show up with a blue background and SMS messages
show up with a green background.
At least these are my observations.
