Pictures

These are pictures from our ultrasound from 5/18 at 13 weeks pregnant! The baby is still so small weighing about 1 ounce! We are running out of words to describe the feelings we have felt on this journey so far and it is only the beginning! Seeing our baby for the first time was indescribable! We look forward to seeing the baby again very soon and feeling the baby move in about 3 weeks or so! Being pregnant is awesome!

Wow!

We went to the doctor for a check up today. The best part was hearing our baby's heart beating at 165 beats per minute. We did not realize how wonderful the sound of a beating heart could be. It was such a sweet and special moment! Dr. Cook let us hold the machine and we could feel the vibrations from the heart each time it beat. Amazing! We will make an appointment with the perinatologist tomorrow for an ultra screen. This will test for genetic disabilities as well as possibly tell us if we're having a boy or a girl. We did the official "ring test" several times and it said It's a Boy! We also checked with the Chinese calendar, which said It's a Boy! We'll find out soon how accurate those gender tests are...
