First Ultrasound

We met our OB today he was very nice and a great doctor. The ultrasound was wonderful, and it was just great to see that there really is a little life growing inside of me. Babie's heartbeat is good and is overall very healthy. Here are the ultrasound pictures. The first picture of babie's head and torso which is measuring at 7.22cm but the doctor said baby is kinda rolled up. So really baby is longer than that. The second picture is of babie's hands and feet (the doctor really liked that one). Enjoy!

Baby Update

We had our first OB appointment on Tuesday. We didn't meet the doctor yet, we will meet him on Monday Sept. 14th. We will also have an ultrasound and get to hear the heartbeat for the first time. I will post pictures and some audio of the heartbeat then.

11 Weeks

A little illustration on what baby looks like.

Baby is about the size of this fig.

Today I am 11 weeks along. It is exciting, but I feel like it is taking forever. I am feeling so much better than the past couple weeks. Though brushing my teeth not so fun. We have our first OB appointment on Sept. 8. But we don't meet our doctor until Sept. 14.

Here is a link to see what baby is up to:

Owl City and Kurt Halsey

We have decided to decorate the baby's room with a theme of Fireflies. Inspired by our new favorite group Owl City and the artist Kurt Halsey. He is the artist of the bird (top) and boy & girl pictures already on our blog. He draws the cutest fireflies and we are going to buy some of his pictures and use those to decorate the room. Since we are not finding out the gender of the baby we thought this was a good neutral theme.

Starting Out

Hey Family and Friends,
I know we have the joint blog but I thought with the baby on the way I would be able to post pictures and news here as well. Love you all!
