Three's Company

After waiting for what feels like forever, we finally have a new family member on the way I have prayed for this day so often that it is truly hard to believe it has finally arrived. Joe and I went to our first pre-natal doctor's appointment today. All reports were great! The baby is 1.4 cm long, with a healthy heartbeat of 160 bpm. I am officially 8 weeks as of Wednesday, June 10. My due date is January 20, 2010. Hearing his/her heartbeat for the first time today was an amazing and wonderful experience. I am in awe of the creation of life right inside of me! We are officially excited! :) We just pray now that God continues to watch over us and for the continued health of Baby S. What a blessing! Yay!

(This is one of the ultrasound pictures. Along the bottom shows how fast his/her heart is beating. I got a little teary eyed when I heard it for the first time. Simply Amazing.)

(This was my favorite picture from the ultrasound. I can make out his/her little body and I just melt.)

This has been a truly blessed day. We have been given one of God's greatest gifts. We cannot wait to meet him/her. We still have several weeks to go (around 32 to be exact) but we are beyond excited!

Thanks for all of your support. We'll keep you posted!

Love, The Sapps
