Yesterday was a pleasant surprise.

We had our prenatal appointment– just the regular check-up… or so I thought.  Upon entering the room I quickly noticed the ultrasound machine and automatically husband and I were checking if it was on (it wasn’t…)

The midwife came in… greeted us and after the regular questions of how are you… have you felt the baby move… she picked up a doppler and said, “Let’s take a listen.” I looked up at the ultrasound machine and casually blurted out that it is such a tease to have it here and not be able to see the baby!! And guess what guys? She smiled and said oh then let’s take a look!!

We got to see our little one after not seeing it for almost 10 weeks! It has grown! It had tiny arms and tiny legs… moving up a storm in my belly.  It blew us a little kiss with its tiny hand.  God, I am so in love already! My midwife continued to show us- or here is the little heart and this and that… then she continued to try to move it… she was trying to see the sex of the baby! Finally, the baby moved… and we found out what we’re having!! I cannot stop smiling!

For you guys… we will announce it on April 5th!
