I couldn't sleep last night, I was filled with great anticipation of seeing our baby for the first time. Blake held my hand as the ultra sound tech, ironically named Shayna, started with the jelly on my tummy. Breathless I saw an image appear, a dark empty space with a little ball in it. She zoomed in and there it was, our baby. It's heart beating quickly and arms and legs moving around and around. Although it's just the size of large grape we could still see it's head and tush or rump like labeled in the picture. It's almost 10 weeks and only 2 more to go until we get the official "good to go" from the doctor. Thankfully, I'm still feeling great, no morning sickness... yet... and my health and the baby's health are perfect! Blake is hanging in... dealing with my moodiness has been a struggle but I sure do appreciate it when he keeps me laughing and brings me my daily glass of orange juice! I'm so lucky!
We're also thrilled to share this news with all of our family and friends... finally!! Sorry if we have kept you out of the loop, it's a tough secret to keep! Blake and I are both so bad a lying we're just so thankful we don't have to do it any more.... except from my coworkers... which is a daily battle!
