Amazing pic of Baby Marker!

Holy Cow, (that's for Amy) we went to our appointment yesterday and they did another ultrasound. We saw the baby, (which has at least quadrupled in size in the last two weeks) and each of it's little arms and legs. I though that was exciting to see, but then the baby wiggled a little, which made me start giggling like crazy! I was in the clouds for the rest of the day! It is definitely more real now! Then the Dr. made a comment about still only seeing one baby, and James and I just started LAUGHING... We told him that we hoped so...
I just have to put a blurb in here about how much I LOVE my Dr.'s office! My appointment was at 10:20AM and we were gone in the car on down the road by 10:28AM. I have never had that good of a time at a Dr.'s office, and been there for so short of a period of time! Usually, I am on the table in the room freezing under a thin piece of paper for 30 minutes to an hour before the Dr. comes in! I am so glad I switched to this Dr.!
Okay, I am starting to get a belly, so soon I will post pics! It is crazy to see the belly, but now that I have seen this baby (which is supposed to be the size of an apricot right now) it makes the belly more fun!

Little Baby

Went to the Dr.'s office today and saw our little baby. Everything looks great, and today, I swear, I saw some little legs, but it is still too early to tell. (But I am going to believe that they were my little babies legs, because that is just exciting!) So, yeah, I go back in two weeks, which is another good thing, since the Dr. is not worried enough to have me back next week! I am really getting into the nausea stage, but I can't complain, because compared to others, it really hasn't been that bad... And, I am in my 9th week, which means that in a couple of weeks, I should be having a grand ole time... without nausea (crossing my fingers)!
I would upload the sonogram, but it looks just like the other one, but a smidge bigger. My girlfriend has convinced me to do tummy pics, and I don't have much to show yet, but it won't be much longer until I do! Until then!

Pregnancy Scare...

So... Yesterday, I had a pregnancy scare... Long story short and without gory details, I had some intense pain and bleeding and my OBGYN sent me to the E.R. It was a long day, but we got to see the baby's heart beat and everything seems to be okay. Had to put up with a mouthy Dr. with horrible bedside qualities, but I got to spend the day with James (which is always good), I saw a man that looked a lot like my Dad (which made me happy) and I got a lot of support from friends and family (thank you everyone for caring so much about us and our little one). I hope that this doesn't seem like I am not taking what happened seriously, but after the initial panic and crying (sorry Heather), I somehow pulled myself together and was able to get through it. Obviously there is a long and entertaining story, but as I don't know who actually reads this blog, I would rather share it with close friends and family...
To little baby Marker:
Little one, we love you so much and really want you to be a part of this family, please stay with us, I promise that we will be the best parents to you. We may not be able to give you lots of toys and material things, but we will give you the most loving home and family that you could ever dream of. Love, Mommy and Daddy.
