3 months!

3 months down, 6 more to go! The time is flying. Here is a picture at 3 months. Things are going well so far and I am still feeling well. Tired a lot and dealing with some lower back pain, but I can't complain too much. I'm told the back pain will not go away for quite awhile, so I better get used to it! We had an appt with Dr. Durbin on July 22nd and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat....SO nice to hear that : ) Hearing that made it feel even more real to us, since I haven't felt any "movement" yet. I'm sure I will soon though. We have an ultrasound scheduled for September 2nd, so I will post those pictures then. Signing off for now, but I will post more updates soon!

How we surprised our family with the baby news.....

On June 3rd, we had family over to celebrate my birthday (June 6th is my real b-day). Little did they know, we were going to surprise them with baby news! We completely caught them off guard because they thought they were coming over just for my b-day. When it came time for cake, we brought this ice cream cake out and watched their reactions as they read the message. It was such a fun way to surprise them : ) It was a great night!

1st Ultrasound - June 4, 2009

Here is our first ultrasound that was done on June 4th. The little white area connected to the top of the circle is our baby. Even though this was taken when I was only about 3 weeks pregnant, we could see the heart fluttering already. Pretty amazing. The next ultrasound will be towards the end of July and with that one, we will actually see a baby! Can't wait : )
