We have a heartbeat!!

Today was our ultrasound to see our sweet pea's heartbeat. It was strong and loud at about 123 beats per minute! It was such a surreal moment, and it has really set in now. We are going to be parents :)

Mama D is having lots of naseau, it's hard to keep down my prenatals and anything else for that matter. I'm also EXHAUSTED. I came home yesterday from work and slept from 6:30 - 10, woke up and had a snack and brushed my teeth, then back to bed til 8 in the morning. Keeping my eyes open past 10 is hard work, and the afternoon slumps are giving me the nickname "Baby Brain" at work.

This was a really special day for Chris. Now he sees what I feel, and we feel so connected. He will be such a good Papa. We took a trip to McDonalds last night and shared a 20 piece nugget and milkshake to celebrate. Not quite a martini, but it satisfied the cravings...

Here is our little one, just a head, spine and legs at this point but growing like a weed and loving bananas and milkshakes!!!



Here is a mini video of the little heartbeat :)
