Week 10

Doctor's visit number two..

...and all is well.  Mom's blood work and other tests all came back with great results.  We go back on August 18th (day after my birthday, two days before your Mom's) to the doctor...should be able to catch a listen to your heartbeat.  A great birthday present for the two of us...you're keeping your Mom tired and hungry...and causing a little back pain.  We'll be in Mississippi to celebrate Aunt-tee's birthday tomorrow, then off to visit Jason and Toni for a nice relaxing weekend on the reservoir.  We wish you were here to join us...but we understand.  We love you!

Your heartbeat

 Watch "Baby's heartbeat! 7.5 weeks old." on YouTube 

So we caught our first glimpse of your heartbeat today.  Kinda resembled a gummy bear!  You are tentatively scheduled to join us on February 26, 2011...the same birthdate as your late grandmother.  I got a bit emotional...your mother was every bit excited!  We won't know if you're a boy or girl until October.  You are beautiful.

This is for us...

...and for someone we have yet to meet.  I already love you so much.  We go in two days to have our first listen to your heartbeat.  To say we are excited is an understatement!  To say we are without fear and anxiety would be to lie.

I pray that God blesses us with a healthy you!
