It's Official!!

Hey all! As you can tell by the picutres, WE ARE PREGNANT!!! Big smiles all around :-D We went to the doctor today and had the very 1st ultrasound so we thought it was time to let all our family and friends know. We are unbelievably excited! It is still really early but we couldn't take the excitement any longer. The original plan was to surprise our families at Christmas which would have been a great present for everyone. But, since the baby is going to be due at the end of April, we thought it might be a little mean to wait until we were 5 months pregnant to spread the word.

Noelle is approximately 9 weeks along as of today which puts the due date as April 28th, 2008. Yeah us!!

We were really worried that it would be difficult for us to get pregnant since Adam had to go through Chemo 2 1/2 years ago. But, the Lord has blessed us with some mighty strong swimmers!! We are truly greatful and still, honestly, blown away by what we've been blessed with.
In the picture of the ultrasound, you can see the sac (dark circle in the center). Inside it is a small sphere on the bottom, which is the egg sac, and a little jellybean, aka the baby. Technology is pretty cool. We were also able to hear the baby's heartbeat which was just trucking along, that was pretty amazing. According to the doc, everything appears to be just great.

Again, it is still very, very early and we have a long way to go. We'll keep ya posted with updates as they come along.

Congratulations! Ryan was due the same day. We decided to make our families wait until Christmas to find out what it was. We wrapped up a boy outfit for each family. It was fun to make them wait a few extra weeks.
