iMessage sent to email goes to iPad; iMessage sent to # goes to iPhone - why?

I want iMessages sent to my email to go to both devices, is this possible?

yes it is, but people need to message you at your email address instead of your phone number. Settings -> Messages -> Receive At -> Add your email address

^^ What he said... AND make sure the Caller ID for iMessage and FaceTime are set to your email address on every device.
