Our BIG (but really little) SURPRISE!!!

Adam and I would like to apologize if you have felt like we have been ignoring you! We have been trying really hard to keep a very BIG (but really little) surprise therefore, we have not been returning calls, texts or reaching out because we have been so worried that we would give away the good news. But the time has come to tell all of our dearest and nearest friends and family that.......... We are going to have a BABY!!!!!!!!!

Our little bundle of joy is expected to grace us with his or her presence on August 20th
I am currently 11 weeks along and our little baby is the size of a fig and is almost fully formed!

Here is the first ultrasound we did, I was just a little under 4 weeks. 
We were able to surprise our parents with the good news on Christmas and made them swear not to tell.  I was feeling pretty nauseous and very exhausted the first month or two. I would even go out and sleep in the car on my lunch breaks. Adam thought I was crazy when nothing in the house sounded good to eat and the thought of making food would send me running to the bathroom. But never the less I am feeling really good now (knock on wood) I am able to eat pretty much anything and am getting my energy back.
Stay tuned for weekly updates and pictures of the little one.

The Little Ones Heart Beat

At our second visits we were able to hear our little one's heart beat for the first time. It was 106 beats per minute. Since then we have been back to the doctors office and the heart rate had increased to 167 beats per minute.
