Has it really been that long?

I tried to come in with a post weekly but somehow the days are just flying by!  Of course, feeling nauseous and tired all day certainly doesn't help.  Then, on top of it, dear husband came down with flu-like symptoms, which freaked me out, but it turned out to be just a bad cold, thankfully!  He's feeling a little better after a whole weekend of being drugged and locked inside the house. :)

Now, let's talk about "healthy", shall we?  I went for my first ultrasound last week and everything is PERFECT!  My official due date is July 9, 2010 and the baby's heartbeat was at 128 beats per minute at 6 weeks, 5 days.  It's amazing how I feel this time.  I thought I'd be sort of like "been there, done that" (not in a bad way at all) but I still had that funny feeling when I saw the baby's image on the ultrasound screen.  Then, when I saw the baby's heartbeat I had to hold back tears, just like when I saw Lila's heartbeat for the first time.  It's amazing how much I love this little bean already!  Weird thing though: it's also amazing how quickly we forget about the DOs and DON'Ts during pregnancy.  I find myself having to read about everything all over again, as if I have no clue what to expect.  It's hillarious!

Here's our little bundle of joy during his/her first photoshoot:

Next "photoshoot" will be on December 22. Can't wait to see what our baby looks like then!

Probably no more updates this week since we are hosting Thanksgiving this year, even though only very few family members will be able to make it.  Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!  So many blessings to count, I don't even know where to begin!
