An Adorable Addition

So, as I alluded to last week, there are some exciting things happening in our family right now. There's a new, higher, position in my company that is looking more and more like a possibility for me, Gabbie got the all-clear from her orthopedist last week who told us that Gabbie's hips now look completely normal and we don't have to schedule any more visits for her, and then, of course, there's this:

That's right, we're working on becoming a family of four, and I couldn't be happier about it! We had our first appointment with the doctor yesterday, and everything looks great. I mean, look at that tiny nose, mouth and eye on that cute baby up there! It was so awesome to see the baby and watch it move around. At one point Baby J (our current nickname for baby #2) jumped, which was awesome to see. The baby was moving and wiggling around in there the entire time the ultrasound tech was doing her thing.

I'm about 11 1/2 weeks along, but am outing myself now both because we saw the baby's little heart beating away nice and strong, and because I'm out in public lately as it's pretty impossible to hid my burgeoning baby belly already. I'm due in mid-December, and if the pregnancy continues to fly by the way it already has, that day will be here mighty fast!
