The Fever

So, if you weren't aware, there is a crazy baby fever going around. Seriously, Nick and I know about 20 couples who either just had a baby in the last few months or are currently pregnant.

And...we may have caught the fever as well! I am pleased to announce that Baby D will be making it's appearance May 4, 2011. I just had my first ultrasound on Wednesday and it was amazing! The baby was moving around like crazy. It looks like we have a feisty one on our hands! They confirmed that there is only one little one in there, which is good because Nick thought it was hilarious to joke that we were having twins. Nope, just one, thank goodness! We could have watched that little screen forever though. Nick asked if we could get an ultrasound machine for the house, ha ha. Here are some pictures of the little one:

Its kind of curled up in the first one, then there is a hand up in the second one. The head is on the right in both

So I'm at about 11 weeks right now, almost out of the 1st trimester, woohoo! It hasn't been too bad (other than a couple rough nights...so much for "morning" sickness), but I'm excited to get some energy back. I feel like an old person going to bed around 9:30pm every night. That explains why we've been slacking off so much on unpacking. It's hard work growing a baby!

It's getting more and more real every day, although it still seems totally crazy that there's a little person in there! Baby fever!!!
