On Thursday, we saw you for the first time. So far, you're mostly white blobs on a screen--half head and half body, with thin little lines that are supposed to be your arms and legs. Needless to say, we were more than excited. I giggled a lot, which wasn't good for picture taking, and your dad grinned from ear to ear the whole time. You have a strong heartbeat, which we saw in the form of a fuzzy movement on the screen, and you're the perfect size so far. The tests from the blood work that we wanted to be negative did indeed come back negative. And all that good news meant that we went from 30 to only 3 percent chance of losing you. I had no idea we'd find that out so soon, and I can't begin to describe the relief and the total awe and joy and love that took its place.
I can just imagine how giddy you were during this ultra sound. I can see you giggling and smiling all the while with tears in your eyes. Don't you just love you little bean so much already?
