Our baby decided to come this time (3/2/2011)....

Yesterday I had one of the most amazing experiences. I got to meet our baby for the first time. The best way to explain my feelings was as if coming to a big snowboarding jump just after having a horrific and painful crash. Just like the last time we went to the doctor excited and ready to see the ultrasound, I was up on the hill looking down at the jump that broke me. It was either going to kill me or it'll be the best feeling in the world. I was really nervous for about a week, especially yesterday. We have a great Dr. now. Ana Maria schedule a time from 3:40 and had to teach dance at 4:30....in Provo. Tight window? um. yeah. So they put us in the room and Ana Maria kept trying to have me go and tell them that she has to go and to have the Dr. hurry. I was embarrassed, but still I realllly wanted to do a ultrasound. Ana Maria was like, "I have to go in 5 min!"...luckily the Dr. came in and we pretty much just ordered him to do an ultrasound. I was in the corner as the Dr. brought up one of those little small ultrasound machines. I didn't want to see the black hole of death (empty sac) again. The Dr. said, "there's a baby!"....what a relief. I walked over to Ana Maria, as the machine lay on her stomach. At first there was nothing there and then he moved it, and there it was, a beautiful baby. You could see the 2 arms and it was figgiting around and the heart was beating crazy. What a beautiful sight. When the Nurse and Dr. left we had a great embrace knowing that everything is fine.Is that really our child?
