New Ultrasound Pics!!

Well, we got to see our sweet little baby yesterday and it was wonderful! It's hard to believe we won't see it again until May!! That's a long time to wait! We did find out the sex but I am not posting it on here until after next week. I am going home to see my family on Christmas Day and since I haven't been able to share anything regarding the baby with them in person, I really want to share this news when I get there.

The ultrasound went great though. The doctor spent a lot of time looking at the heart and the spine and the head and everything looked perfect! It's exactly where it should be as far as size goes and she said all of the organs and everything looked great. It was amazing to see the four chambers of the heart - ultrasounds really are a marvel. I couldn't believe she was able to look through my stomach to the baby and then through the baby to its heart and brain - modern science is truly wonderful. We are very very excited to be parents and can't wait until May!!

Here are some pictures from the ultrasound. The first one is of the arm and hand (we could see all five fingers by the way!) and the last three are profile shots. I'll be posting belly shots soon and I'll post the sex after next week. Merry Christmas to all of our friends and family - we miss you!!

Christmas is coming!

Hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving!! My mom came up on Wednesday afternoon and left on Sunday. We had a wonderful feast on Thanksgiving (courtesy of my dear hubby) and we are still working on the leftovers. My mom helped me put up our tree and all of our decorations so the apartment is looking pretty festive right now which I love. We went shopping all day on Friday and most of the day on Saturday and got some pretty good deals. I can't believe it is already December and that Christmas is almost here! It still hasn't snowed up here (I'm NOT complaining) but we've definitely had some cold days and I know that the snow will be here soon.

Two weeks from today (December 15th) Grant and I will find out what we're having!! We can't WAIT! We are dying to buy stuff and I can't wait to start planning a nursery. We went to Babies R Us last weekend and registered for a lot of basic baby stuff, but I'm dying to add some pink or blue items! I'm going to add a poll soon so people can vote (guess) on what we're having so be sure to check back for that by the end of the week. Much love to all!
