Sprout's first photo shoot!

Baby's head is on the right side and the two little things sticking out on either side of the rounded part on the left are its little leg buds!  Obviously he or she doesn't look much like a baby yet, but I'm excited to see how much he or she has grown and changed by our next ultrasound on the 20th!  

I'm so in love with little Sprout already.  I can't wait to bring our baby home in July and enjoy being a family of 3!

Great News!

We had an ultrasound today.  I'm 7 weeks, 1 day.  Everything went perfectly.  I was extremely excited but also a little anxious about how it would go.  We saw the heartbeat, it was at 149 bpm, which is perfect!!  We saw where the brain is developing, where the spinal cord is developing, and the beginning of little legs!  It was so neat and amazing that we could see so much on our little baby who is just the size of a blueberry. I'm really excited to see how much more we can see when we go to our OB on the 20th!

This is going to be short and sweet!  I'm about to take a bath and head to bed in a little bit.  My days are significantly better if I am in bed by 8 or 8:30.  So... I'll have enough time to get cozy and warm in the bath, read a little from The Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy (a GREAT buy, by the way), and then off to bed by 8!  It's a good thing I have such a wonderful, caring, and helpful husband to help around the house!  He's absolutely amazing and is going to be the best daddy that I know!
