Ultrasound





Warren and I went to our first ultrasound on Thursday Dec. 18. It was a ton of fun! Our baby was hiding so the nurse had to push on my belly a bit and then he(we'll just call it a him till we find out) came flying around into view. I ended up being farther along then we thought so I was at 12 weeks and he was 2 inches long. My due date is July 4th! Warren is happy because that is his favorite holiday. It was very exciting to hear his heartbeat. The sweetest thing was that he kept sticking his leg up, it was just an amazing experience to be able to see our baby.
