5 Weeks - Polka Dot, Lima Bean, Baby Ruth....


We had our 5 week ultrasound today, and it looks as though we have a little polka dot! Or more of a lima bean or if you look at the photo in it's entirety it looks like Sloth from the goonies...hmmm.... "Baby Ruth!!!" Come to think of it, a Baby Ruth sounds pretty good right about now with a Root Beer float....

The good news is that Mama Bear is progressing nicely and we will have another ultrasound to see and hear the heartbeat next week. Other than feeling a bit tired, hungry and having the most tender boobies EVER, I am feeling pretty darn good. I do miss my glass of vino at night (substituting a pre-natal just doesn't give the same effect), but I am living vicariously through Papa Bear and his Budweisers :)

We are Pregnant!!!

It's official! We are pregnant! After the positive urine test, and a blood test to confirm, we are officially having a baby! What a Christmas present!

As Chris says, we "pulled the goalie" and it happened right away. This adventure is so exciting already with all the emotions that come with it. Excitement, anxiety, you name it. So many thoughts are going through our heads right now but most of all, LOVE, for the little cub in my belly. Our cub will be hibernating for awhile but we cannot wait to welcome this life to our world....
