8 weeks & a Heart beat.

To say today was the most exciting, terrific, amazing, MAGNIFICENT day of our lives (so far) would be a huge understatement. I am 8 weeks, 4 days today and we got to hear the sound of Little Baby Moon's heart beat for the first time. It was only for a total of what seemed like 30 seconds ...but it was pure bliss. The nurse had us in and out of that room in 2 minutes flat. Where was our first time parent compassion?! HELLO. I wanted to record it on my phone. I need to play that every morning at 6:10 AM when I am curling over my bathroom vanity. It would be a great reminder that all this sickness is completely and totally worth every second.

We also got the cutest little photos while we were at the Doc's today. John says he/she looks like a "dung beetle"- haha.


Her/his first photo:

I may be a little bias, but I definitely think this baby is the cutest one I have ever seen ;)  This little bundle of joy is still a secret to most. We aren't finished telling family at this point and still need to share with friends. We can't wait until we are able to shout this news from the mountain tops!


WE. ARE. HAVING. A. BABY!!! I have been waiting so long to say those words.

Our next appointment is March 18th --for blood work. At that point I will be uploading weekly pictures!! :) This is going to be so much fun.

PS: The countdown is on to week 20! --- We get to find out if we will be shopping for bows or boots!
