3 Month Check-Up

We were in last week for a 3+ month check-up & got to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time. It took only seconds for the doctor to find it & it was strong as could be. Everything is still going very good & we go back for an extensive (but routine) ultrasound in the end of October. At that point we'll be able to find out the sex of the baby...but think we're going to keep it a suprise!

12 weeks

I'm 12 weeks today & can't believe how time has gone by! I've had some bumps along the way, but have been starting to feel pretty good again. We go in on Sept. 23 for our check-up & the doctor said we should be able to hear the heartbeat at that time! More to come after next week!

12 weeks

8 weeks

1st & 2nd Ultrasounds

8 weeks, 6 days (on August 26th)

Our little man (so Nate thinks) is a little over an inch long, has a strong heartbeat & good looking spine. The doctor had a little giggle during the ultrasound & said "looks like we woke the baby up from a nap"...the arms & legs were moving all over. Watching everything was absolutely amazing. This appointment made everything all the more real, we loved being able to see how our baby has grown in just a matter of weeks!

Here's a 3D picture of the baby cuddling up...back to nap time!

 1st Ultrasound (on August 10th)

This is what we got to see at our 1st ultrasound appointment. Going into it we thought we were close to 8 weeks along, and found out that I was approximately 6 weeks & 2 days. The baby was about the size of a grain of rice, but yet we were still able to see the heartbeat! It looked like a flicker of light, who would've ever imagined you could see something so small (or something that small could make you so sick)!

We're Expecting!

Yes, it's true...we're expecting!! I'll do my best to put some pictures up soon. We went in for our first ultrasound on August 10th. At that time the doctor thought our due date was April 3rd, which put me at 6 weeks & 2 days. We went in again last night (8/26) and the due date has changed...April 1st, so now I'm nearly 9 weeks! We could have an April Fool's baby! More to be posted soon.
Love,
Nate & Jessie

Newlyweds!

So much has happened in the last year...we got engaged, Nate moved home, we bought our first house & got married on May 1st! I thought it'd be fun to create this blog to help keep everyone updated. Here's a few wedding pics. Enjoy!

Love, Jessie & Nate
