Oh! how time flies!!

Well, not much has changed in the month and half since my last post. I have had a couple more visits with Dr Downey and everything seems to be going well. The heartbeat with a doppler is 140s-150s. We have had the opportunity to look with the ultrasound at work and it is truly amazing to see our sweet baby grow. The first time we looked it was round, just a little circle. The next time we took a peek it looked more like a little twig, just occasionally wiggling. This last week we decided to take another look and it has a sweet little face and little arms and legs. It is a miracle to see this development before our eyes, especially in just a few short weeks. Ross has been so sweet to the baby. He listens in mamas chest for the heartbeat, and looks down my throat "to see her." He always calls the baby a "her," but at one time, said he wanter a "brudder." We look forward to him having a sibling and someone to help with and share with. He has a caring and sweet spirit that I hope he shares with the new baby. We look forward to the next visit at the doctor, where we will hopefully find out the sex of our baby. We are hoping for a healthy and happy one. I will have the quad screen at the next visit and we will schedule the "big ultrasound" with the Maternal-Fetal Medicine doctor. We are not expecting any problems, just hoping to rule them out. I will keep updating the blog when the time comes. I am feeling good, no fetal movement yet, but it is sure to come. I look forward to this "honeymoon trimester," it leads us closer to our little sweet pea!
