9 week ultrasound!

Today, Vinny and I got to see our baby again and let me just say, what a difference 3 weeks makes! I measured right on track and everything is looking great. This time there was an actual, formed baby and we got to see the head, body, arms and legs! 

The heartbeat was also a lot stronger than last time - 167 bpm and still the most beautiful sound we've ever heard. Its going to be a really long 10 week wait til we get to see baby again at the anatomy scan!

A New Adventure

Vinny and I found out on Mothers Day that we are expecting a baby! We couldn't be more thrilled and we're excited to see what the future has in store for us.  

The purpose of this blog is to keep our friends and family updated as we uproot, rearrange and prepare our lives for the next chapter. 

So, to keep you up to date, Im currently 7 weeks and 3 days pregnant. We had our first ultrasound on June 1st where we got to see our baby (or bean as Vinny likes to call it) for the first time and hear the heartbeat. It was the day it all became real. We're going to be parents! We fell in love with our baby and we were ready to scream it from the mountain tops and that's just what Vinny did, he told everyone and anyone.

We've already received an unbelievable amount of love and support from our family & friends, we're really lucky to have them all in our lives.
