De-Lurking Week!



Did you know this is de-lurking week? I found out when I was visiting Joanne, so I'm passing it on. All you have to do is go to my comments and let me know you've been here. A simple hi will do!

It's a Baby!!!

My little blob from the previous ultrasounds now actually looks like a baby! It seems much more real now! I was able to get a FREE ultrasound yesterday. The Pregnancy Care Centers in Raleigh, NC are training ultrasound techs and so I was a "model" (as the paper I signed said). Fine by me, I got pictures of my baby! AND, here they are! I was 12 Weeks 5 Days when these shots were taken. My first OB appointment is next Wednesday at 2:30. YAY!

Update: I forgot to give you all a few details about the ultrasound. We got to see the baby move his/her arms around and jumping in reaction to the techs moving the intruments. It was so neat! We got to see his/her arms, legs, fingers, toes, stomach, heart, brain, nose, mouth etc... I just can't tell you how AMAZING it truly was! After all these many, many months, I just can't believe that I am actually pregnant and we are having a baby! Thanks be to God for His perfect will for our lives and this baby's. We are so thankful he has chosen us to be the parents of this precious gift!
