12 weeks!

Eh, I think I may have popped slightly early.. This picture was actually taken when I was 12w3d and it was a big difference from my actual 12w picture..I definitely notice my belly alot more in my shirts and the belly is hard..I also am picking up the hb right below my belly button, when just a week ago it was way lower! I got 5 comments from people at church yesterday, it made my day!

1st ultrasound!!!!

Wow, it was such a great experience! As I sat in the chair and she squirted the warm jelly on my stomach and pressed the camera to me, our lil bit instantly came into view, I squealed with happiness, and all Dusty could do was grin! It was so amazing to see the heartbeat and know that we made that little one up on the screen. He/She decided to put on a show for us and started wiggling its little arms and legs, and turning all around! Here are the pictures of our littly gummy bear!
