Almost 15 Weeks!

John and I just got finished with our doctors appointment!  We are 14 weeks and 3 days along.  The baby's heartbeat is loud and strong!  I'm starting to feel better during the days but the nights are full of acid reflux and nausea...but it's all for a good reason so oh well, I'll take it!  Our baby was moving all over the place again today so I think we'll have a baby that's full of energy and likes to go, go, go (like his/her mom and grandpa Sprouse!)  We have another appointment in 4 weeks to listen to the heartbeat and then another one 4 weeks after that where we get to find out what it is...and yes, we will be finding out and sharing the exciting news with everyone!  It's hard to believe that 3 months have gone by and we're well on our way into the 2nd trimester.  We continually thank God for this tiny blessing as well as all of the love and support given to us by our family and friends.  We look forward to sharing more good news!  We'll keep you posted!  Love and Blessings to all!!

P.S.
I gained weight....not disclosing the number of lbs' but my pants no longer button or zip :)    thank goodness for the belly band!

12 Weeks and Counting!

We've passed the 12 week mark!   We're headed into the second trimester and things are going so well.  We recently had our 12 week visit with the doctor and got some great ultrasound images.  We saw tiny legs, arms and the little one even decided to give us a wave!  It took a while for the ultrasound tech to get a good shot of the baby because he/she was moving all about.  It was the coolest thing to watch our baby twist and turn in it's little home.  I even had to do jumping jacks and walk around the room so that the baby would change positions in hopes that the tech could get the image that she needed!  The heart rate was 159 bpm and the baby is growing just as it should be.  Our due date is June 12, 2011 so our little one will be making his/her arrival during the beautiful Spring season.  John and I both feel so incredibly blessed and wanted to share all of our amazing moments with our friends and family who have supported us from the beginning.  Our next appointment is in a couple of weeks so we'll have more updates then!  Love and blessings to all!
