13 weeks and an Awesome Ultra Sound!!!

Last time I blogged I said we wouldn't be having an Ultra-Sound till 20 weeks. But, I had a little bit of spotting and the doctor wanted to make sure all was well... Which it was :D :D :D :D

If you look close you can see the little one's head, chest, legs and the outline of one arm. It was the most amazing experience ever to watch our little one kick, stretch and move!!! Although I wish the little one would have held still long enough for a decent photo lol that would have been nice!!!

Anyway, All is well and the baby is right on track! We're enjoying the experience more and more and are so excited for July to come!! Hopefully during my next appointment I'll remember to record the heart beat! Still won't know what the gender is until March but we're ok with that :)

12 Weeks!!!

Monday we heard the heart beat!!! That was.. incredible :) to say the least. I can't believe how fast the heart rate is for our 4 inch little baby! The doctor compared the baby's heart beat to mine and I about laughed. It was so fast in comparison!! He says that I'm moving right along and then dropped the bomb :( We won't be doing the ultra sound next month at 15 1/2 weeks. We'll be doing it in March at 20 weeks!!! We were hoping for next month!!! Oh well, I guess another month of waiting to see the baby on screen wont kill us!... Right?

School started Monday. I love it! I can't really speak for Derek though. I think he's just ready to be done and is going to welcome a year or two off! Anyway, everything is going good for us! Hope everyone else is doing well!!!

Life is Good

I decided to make this as much a family blog as a baby blog :) So, Just an update on life in general!

Derek will walk in May and graduate this summer with his bachelors!!! I'm so excited for him!! He's worked really hard in school trying to finish up! Then he'll do two semesters of Pre-Recs and we're off to who knows where for his Masters Degree! Exciting right?

I'm doing most of my Pre-Recs this semester for the Surgical Tech program. I should only have one class and a lab during the summer so hopefully it works out and the baby cooperates and doesn't come before finals ;) I'm also back at Mike's Barber and Beauty! I love it there! They are a great group of people to work with and I enjoy working there far more than my previous job.

Life is going good and we're happy :) We're super excited for the newest addition to our family and can't wait to meet him or her in... 6 months!!
