Well, after 5 1/2 years of marital bliss we are expanding our family! Baby Bell is due to make his/her arrival on or before April 12!! We are so excited about our new baby and can't believe how much we love him/her already!! I'm 12 weeks 6 days along and so far everything looks great! We've had 2 ultrasounds so far and they all say baby is healthy and doing GREAT! At our 12 week ultrasound we had some testing done to check the fluid at the base of the baby's skull. Thicker fluid can sometimes be an indicator of a genetic disorder, but our baby's fluid was just where it should be so we're thankful for that. We'll have more in-depth testing done at our 16 week ultrasound...and we'll also get a sneak-peek at whether baby is a he or she!! :) We can't believe we get to find out so early! Our 16 week ultrasound is October 27th so we're counting down the days!!

So far baby has been very kind to mommy...no morning sickness, just very tired, but I'll take that any day! Let's hope the rest of the pregnancy continues to be as uneventful!! Please continue to check the blog for updates on baby. I'm not promising to update daily but I'll at least shoot for weekly until we have more exciting things to post...like pics of the baby. I'm hoping the blog can keep everyone up-to-date on what's going on in our world of pregnancy. And I'm sure everyone will want to check back more frequently once baby is actually here for all the cute pics of him/her. Please keep baby and mommy (and daddy!) in your prayers and that we have a healthy and safe pregnancy.

  3. We had such a great time at the beach last week! Baby Bell just loves the ocean and the sand and will have to go back often. When he or she travels outside of Mommy's tummy for the first time we'll probably have to rent a U-Haul for all our sand toys, sun tent, stroller......it will be so much fun!
