Guess what?

Yep, Ava is going to be a big sister believe it or not! We had our first ultrasound yesterday to find out my due date. It's going to be November 12! Not as early as I had hoped, but pretty close. The baby was only 4mm long from crown to rump, yet we could clearly see it's little heartbeat, and hear it too! That's just amazing to me that you can see and hear a heartbeat on something so tiny. It was beating a nice strong 136 beats per minute. Here's a picture...I know it doesn't look like much yet (tadpole? fishstick?) but at least we got to see SOMETHING.
I'm happy...everythings looks good and healthy right now, and there was only one baby, so I don't have to worry about my husband running away to Mexico. :)

Sorry I haven't updated my blog in awhile....been slacking, and this pregnancy is kicking my butt fatigue-wise. Not to mention Ava has taken to waking up in the middle of the night again, so that doesn't help! Here's a few more of Ava's 9 month pictures. Ain't she cute?
