Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom! That's your little heart pitter-pattering inside my belly on the ultrasound. Today we saw you, our little peanut, for the first time and it was incredible! To think that somewhere inside me is another heart beating twice as fast as mine, amazing! I want to sleep with our first picture of you under my pillow but Daddy won't let me because I'll wrinkle it. He wants to keep it pristine, and so do I, of course, even tho I already got in trouble for twisting it around my finger. I'll just put it in my pregnancy planner along with all my other treasures of you.
These pictures are of you from today at 6 weeks and 4 days old - which is really only 4 weeks and 4 days old but I'll keep letting the doctors think what they want. Right now, you are feeding off the yolk inside your sac. Don't worry, you're not a chicken, at least I don't think so. Daddy may think otherwise. If you turn out to be a chicken tho, we have lots of chicken friends for you on the cul-de-sac :)
After we saw you, we celebrated by... what else... eating! But the fun part came tonight when we called your family. Lots of congratulations, some gasps and I even think some dancing! We were so happy to share the news and hear all the different reactions. You made a lot of people very happy, sweet baby of mine! And I'm at the tippy top of that list. I love you so very much and look forward to seeing you again in 2 short weeks.
XOXO

Dad and I are soooo happy for you two. I find myself smiling and remembering how exciting it was to find out that I was pregnant - what a special time. Now I'm off to the yarn store - so many patterns, so little time.
