Week 7

Baby is the Size of a Blueberry 

What a wonderful week it has been!  I had my first sonogram and got to see my little one and his or her beating heart!  It was such a relief to know that everything looks the way it should and that there is only one in there.  I went to the doctor thinking I was 7 weeks and 3 days, but the baby measured 6 weeks and 6 days, which changed my due date to February 3, 2015 - the day after my husband's birthday. 

This week we also started telling our family and close friends, which is so much fun!  I love seeing everyone's reactions.  We sent these cards to our dads for Father's Day and had them call us after they opened it.  Their reactions were priceless and they are so excited to be grandparents.  

It's so wonderful having our family and close friends know now.  It makes it feel real and more exciting!
