12 weeks, 3 days down...


We made our second trip to the doctor today. By now, Laura and I are getting more and more familiar with the idea that we're actually pregnant. We were both still extremely excited and nervous but, now we just want to make sure everything keeps progressing normally. This trip to the doctor was not as "new" as the last one. We know we're pregnant, so I didn't think it would quite "hit" us like it did when we first saw the little guy (or girl). Boy was I wrong. As soon as the doctor showed us the baby, we were both - again - in awe. This time, we were SO shocked to see how much he/she had grown. Not only could you see the baby's major features, but the baby was very active. His/Her arms were waving around and he/she was kicking it's legs. At one point, the doctor thought that he might be able to look for the sex (which would've helped out writing this post) and at the moment he got a good shot, the baby crossed it's legs. I'm thinking this may be a sign that it's a girl. If it's my girl then she already knows that Dad wants her to be very suspicious of strange men trying to get a look at her. Anyway, we had another amazing trip to the doctor and, again, I think Laura and I feel like we just found out we're pregnant. We still can't believe that God has blessed us so much! Keep the prayers coming and we love you all!

Here he/she is at 12 weeks, 3 days (according to Dr. Kileen):

(Face Down, fist in front) (Same position, fist a little more pronounced)




(Back towards us, laying on it's side, trying to get some sleep)



And here here Laura at 12 weeks (the OFFICIAL baby bump picture):

San Antonio...

Laura, the little peanut and I took a trip with Mom and Laura's parents this weekend to San Antonio. The little guy/girl took it's first float down the river in New Braunfels. We also did some shopping (picked up a few maternity items) and ate at some great restaurants. Tomorrow, we're going to take a picture of Laura at 9 weeks now so that we can start documenting the "belly progression". More to come...
