Blissfully happy!

Today was our 16 week appointment. We weren't suppose to have an ultrasound today but I thought what was the harm in asking. :)

I asked and of course the Doctor said, You want to see your baby? Of course you want to see your baby....he disappeared & moments later brought in the portable sonogram machine. (Or whatever it's called) - In seconds we were watching our precious baby sitting perfectly still facing to the right except for his/her right hand punching the air - as if in time to some music she/he has heard. The left hand just resting comfortably on his/her head. What's more amazing about this - when Brett is excited about something or acting like he's "dancing" to a song he'll pump his fist in the air! Identical to what our baby was doing! Hmmmm - like daddy like baby??- The most incredible sight in the world was seeing our baby open her/his hand to show off the fingers & thumb - it was so crystal clear. My heart was racing & flowing with abundant, unconditional love! It never felt so real - I've thought I've felt maybe a "roll" here & there when it felt like my stomach was turning upside down but haven't felt much else - so to see this completely made it real! The Doctor said baby has a very strong & healthy heart! All appears to be good.

Thank you Lord for this unexpected blessing today. Our hearts are filled with thankfulness and happiness and we owe that all to you. You have blessed our lives with more than we can possibly thank you for.

To my baby boy or baby girl, thank you for being a part of our lives. We saw you today and our hearts are overjoyed and overflowing with love & excitement. You certainly surprised us with your "dancing" since your daddy does the same moves. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us - in a few more weeks we'll get to see you again except this time for a little bit longer. Stay strong & healthy our baby.....we love you, we pray for you daily, and we can't wait to meet you!!
