First Appointment

I had my first appointment this morning. I was looking very forward to hearing that heartbeat...and there it was very loud and fast. Everything looks really good. I am measuring just a couple of days ahead of schedule, so I am sure this baby will be a good size just like Lane was. I had an ultrasound which was so fun! I love seeing that little body moving around! It was moving it's arms around alot, at one point it looked like it was waving at us. And...only one baby! Judging by my size twins wouldn't have surprised me, either that or I thought maybe they were off on my due date. Nope, just big. I really have only gained a pound or two though. My stomach has just gotten bigger and probably the rest of me has gotten smaller. I am going to spare you all from seeing my pregnant belly at this point until I can get a better picture of myself. Instead here is a picture that I took of the ultrasound picture I got.

Kind of hard to make much out but you can tell the head is at top. The little thing sticking out is it's arm. You can't tell from this picture but in person you can see little fingers on the arm. Just wanted to update everyone who was waiting to hear how it all went.
