18 weeks today

A couple of updates since my last post! Jason and I got to see our little sprout at 11 weeks and he/she was very active, moving around in there! Here's the pictures:

Mommy's tummy wasn't quite showing at that time and I looked like this during the Foo Fighters concert:

Smiling and holding you close and rocking with you through the concert. We had a blast!

Now things are starting to um, sprout! Mommy's tummy at 18 weeks (7 weeks later) looks like this:

We got to hear your heartbeat two weeks ago and the doctor said it's sounding healthy and strong. You kicked the microphone and it made mommy jump! I said, what's that?? And she said it was you moving. I also got more good news! On November 30th, just after Thanksgiving, we get to find out your gender and see you again. I have missed getting to see you in there and am very excited :)

Work knows all about you now too! It has been fun connecting with other moms and sharing advice/tips! Dad and I don't quite know all the in and outs of parenting yet but are learning new things each day. Today we looked around Babies "R" Us and had a great time visualizing all the furniture, toys, etc. we can get for you! Are you our little girl or boy sprout? Only time will tell!
