It's been a long journey to get here, but for today this is just a celebratory post. It's my first Mothers Day and we are so happy to finally share our big news. On March 16th we found out that we are expecting for the very first time:
We still can't believe it sometimes, but it becomes more and more real every day. We have been very fortunate to have several ultrasounds due to the practice we were a part of and have had lots of reassurance that our little bean is doing just fine. That combined with the fact that I've been sick every day since about a week after we found out has given us much comfort that all is well and we can't ask for more than that. So without further ado, here are the first pictures of our little one...
Baby Bilbo, 5 weeks, 5 daysBaby Bilbo, 6 weeks, 5 daysThis was also the First time we saw the heartbeat...amazing!!Baby Bilbo, 8 weeks, 5 days
We'll get to see our little one again on the 19th and we can't wait. Since at 8 weeks he/she was all curled up tight and sound asleep, we didn't get a good look at all the limbs and everything. This time I'll get pumped up on Sunkist before I go to make sure our little bean is awake and mobile. ;)Stay tuned for a "how did this happen" (and not a birds & the bees talk, just a summary of our TTC story) later this week if you're interested.
Happy Mother's Day!!
