"Look At That Fat Baby!"

Our first official doctor appointment was Wednesday, July 7th and it was confirmed that I was 7 weeks, 6 days pregnant. Therefore, I am just over 8 weeks pregnant and due February 17th (one day after my dad's birthday). The first thing the lady said during our ultrasound was, "Look at that fat baby!", which made me think about my poor mother. She, somehow, had the fattest babies ever. I was the smallest one and I weighed 8 pounds and 9 ounces (I think). Most people would not consider that to be small, but when your other two babies were 9 pounds and some ounces and the other was a 10 pounder, 8 pounds seems rather small. :) Our baby's heartbeat was 183 beats/minute and it's leg and arm buds were there. It was such a great feeling seeing the baby pop up on the screen and hearing the doctor say everything looked great :)

On another good note I am actually feeling pretty good. Luckily I haven't experienced any morning sickness (fingers crossed it stays like that!). The only symptoms I have been experiencing are tiredness and having to go to the bathroom a little bit more. So things are going really well so far :)

Check our some of our baby's first pictures. Look closely at the one with the yolk sac (or soccer ball as some may see it) and there is a dark area which seems to be a Pitts nose in the making............oh boy!
