Just a glimpse...

Last Thursday it finally hit us that there really was a baby growing inside of me! We went in to hear the heart beat and honestly, I was a little disappointed because it wasn't very loud and we didn't get to hear it that long. Still, it was so amazing to hear! As we were listening I told the doctor, "So it sounds like there's only one in there." She said she thought there was only one but since twins run on both sides of our family she ordered an ultrasound to make sure. We were ecstatic!!!!!

We went out front to schedule our ultrasound, and the nurse told us that the next appointment never showed! We were able to get the ultrasound done on that day! So we watched in awe as our little baby moved his/her hands and feet. It looked like he/she might have been sucking its thumb in one of the pictures:) We were astounded that God had already formed in our baby, who is only 10 weeks old, so many things: organs, fingernails, roots for teeth, etc! We were very thankful that there was only one baby in there this time!













Baby Finn! We were surprised to be able to see the brain and spinal cord!













Baby Finn says hello to the world!
