Good BYE First Trimester!!!! Hello cute baby! :)

Today was my 12 week ultrasound. This OB office does things a little different than my previous one. This is my 2nd of 3 (or more) ultrasounds. More potentially because on my birthday I get to move into the "high risk" category of pregnancy...because I turn 35. Whatever...

Anyways...we decided to take Lucas to the OB with us today. He has been talking about "the baby in Mommy's belly" and I thought he'd really like to "see" it again.

So we get there, and I go in for my annual exam and then after when we're ready for the ultrasound they bring in Jacob and Lucas. At first he was upset because he wanted to sit on my lap. Obviously I couldn't accommodate that...so we had to calm him down. Then the baby showed up on the screen...and he just laughed and laughed! He was so excited!

We asked if we could hear the heartbeat and although it was hard to do with that particular machine...they made it happen. We wanted to record it...but it was way too quiet. Hearing the heartbeat made Lucas laugh again.

He is such a sweetie...and I know he will want to hold this baby all. of. the. time! I am really looking forward to seeing my babies...all of them..bonding :) It will be a wonderful Christmas this year, indeed!

Here is the 12 week Ultrasound. It is a picture of the baby's back. Head is on the right and rump on the left. You can see both arms and one leg. So cute...even for a sketchy blob :) *swoon*
