Welcome!

Well hello everyone! We have decided we are far enough along now that we are going to open the page up to everyone. To some family this will be just an update but for many this will be our announcement. We have been very busy on top of getting used to the idea of having a little one running around. Luckily we still have a little while longer to adjust. But like all good things I am sure it is going to fly by and we will be at the end of March soon. Well, we are glad everyone stopped by and I hope this will help the family and our friends keep tabs on us and we will try to keep it updated. We have many friends with blogs who we have been learning from and hope to keep up a good example. Hope to talk or see everyone soon!!!

End of a Trimester

Well we had our second doctors visit and we are now out of the first trimester. Baby Graham had a heart rate of 158, which was very good. There was a lot of squirming going on and half way thru the test decided to roll over and give us a smile as you can see above.

It is hard to make out but we were able to see two arms and two legs. Must have my appetite because even at 2.5" long Baby Graham is already 4 days bigger than projected. Those vitamins must be working. They aren't moving the date so we are still projecting somewhere around March 25!

Letting People Know

Here is Noah, Baby Grahams big cousin. He is getting ready to tell the family the big news. He looked a little happy.

First Doctor Visit

Well we had out first doctors visit Friday and everything was great. We calculated we were at 7 weeks 3 days and the computer said 7 weeks and 4 days so that is pretty good. Little one was 1.36 cm which is about a little smaller than your thumb. The dotted line is its body. The round thing that looks like a head (that’s what I thought) is actually like a yolk sac that will become the placenta in a couple more weeks. The approximate due date is March 25 of 2008. The heart beat was very visible but is to weak to pick up on machines for several more weeks.

Last Meal

Here is our last meal as a family of two.

One Line or Two

Man technology has come along way. Kristi surprised me this morning while I was making breakfast with this. Don't have to read the side of the box to figure out what this meant!
