Becoming a Family of Three





Well, it's safe to say, I'll probably be updating this blog A LOT more than before.  

Matt and I are currently 10 weeks pregnant with our first child.  We're super excited/nervous/terrified.

We just went to our second appointment with the midwife the past Friday, and what an amazing experience that was!  Because our first appointment was really early (5 weeks 6 days) the midwife wanted us to do a second ultrasound, and I'm so glad we did.  The baby (whom we're calling Falcon right now) looked AMAZING!  Falcon is already VERY active, and gave us quite the show while we were looking. He/She wiggled around and punched his/her little arms like crazy.  Looks like we're in for a very active little one.

Words can't describe how we're feeling right now.  We're feeling very relieved that everything looks really well, and that Falcon is on track for a June 8 due date.  

I'll try and update at least monthly on the progress of Falcon, and maybe after Christmas I'll start posting belly shots, who knows.

Right now, I just keep staring at my ultrasound picture of Falcon, trying to comprehend that I have a PERSON growing inside of me.  That just blows my mind.

  1. Yay! I'm so happy for you! Let me tell you, the concept of growing a person never gets old. It gets even more mind blowing when your like 8 months along and can sit or lay down and actually watch the ripples on your belly that is the baby moving. MiniDee and I used to play. I poke him and he'd poke me and I could see a little imprint of his hand. It's pretty much the best experience in the world. You'll love it.
