April 27, 2011 Baby I 10 weeks
We had our second ultrasound today! And were in double digits now, 10 weeks! Baby is about the size of a kumquat, is a little over an inch or so long and weighs in at less than a quarter of an ounce. But has now completed the most critical portion of development! Grandma Cynthia got to join at the ultrasound, which was very exciting for her! Baby was so sweet, waving his/her little hands and dancing up a storm. We could see both hands and feet moving all around. It was so cute.  Doctor said, "Wow, that's one happy baby in there". Everything went great, Dr. Laughlin said we're both healthy and right on track. We have out next appointment it 4 weeks. I still feel great, and I think my energy is starting to come back a little =)

Sweet child of mine

Today is 9 wks and 1 day and baby is the size of a grape! I'm very lucky and thankful to report I haven't had any morning sickness. I could sleep all day though! I take at least a nap a day and I'm still in bed by 8:30! Jeff has been such a troopper and lets me get my rest. Trying to work, keep up at the gym, and keep up on house chores has been quiet the challenge. The doctor gave me the okay to workout so when I feel up to it, I still like go to my aerobics classes. No weird cravings yet, but I'm enjoying anything hardy. And let me say this, when I'm hungry, I'M HUNGRY! I could drink a gallon of liquid a day, water, juice, slurpees....anything will do! Jeff has been so helpful around the house and that has been much appreciated! We are looking forward to our 10 wks appointment next week and getting to see the little one!

Little one, were almost out of the first trimester! I know your growing so fast in there and hard at work developing! Even though mommy complains about being tired, you take all the energy you need to grow! Its Easter this weekend, me and daddy cant wait for you to be here next Easter so you can enjoy all the family fun with us. You have so many people that already love you!

Our first glimpse


March 31, 2011, Baby I 6wks
We had our first ultrasound appointment with Dr. Laughlin today. We were so excited to see you and hear your little heart beat. The two weeks leading up to the appointment felt like it took forever. But once we saw you, the wait was all worth it. When the ultrasound first appeared on the screen, it looked like there were two of you. Daddy was a little worried, but doctor Laughlin assured us it was just you in there! Your heart beat was the best little sound we've ever heard, for that one minute you were up one the screen is the only time I haven't been worrying about you since the day I knew you were coming.
That was one amazing minute ♥

BIG NEWS! 03/22/10
