So Lucas and I went for my first sonogram and instead of seeing a peanut......we saw a Beautiful BLOB! I'm not as far along as they expected - only 7 weeks, 4 days instead of 9. Apparently a lot can happen in 1.5 weeks :)
We did hear the whooshing heartbeat which is such a miracle. I know all of you moms and dads out there already know this, but there's nothing better and more amazing than hearing that sound. Lucas and I finally realize that it's REAL now!
So on the funny/ironic note: With me not being as far along I no longer have a Christmas Day due date but instead it's the day that joins Lucas and I...January 4th. For those of you who don't know Lucas's birthday is January 3rd and mine is January 5th! How ironic to go from Christmas to the day between our birthdays. God definitely has a sense of humor.
On the downside we may not be able to claim the baby on 2009 taxes but on the upside Lucas is now claiming this child as his own since the dates make more sense for when he thinks we conceived. Sorry everyone...I know that's too much info but I find it hysterical. He can't blame the mailman anymore :)
Here's a picture of our Beautiful Blob!
