Doctor, Doctor ~ Robert Palmer

From Tuesday, November 16th:

Today we went to see Dr. Staggs for the first time to check out how the P is going. Still calling it the "P" until I know what it is. I was nervous going in but as soon as the doc congratulated us on our P I got very excited. We saw the heartbeat (very cool) and found out our due date is June 22nd so that makes us about 8 and a half weeks. I told the doc that we had only been off birth control since the middle of August and he told us that 15 out of 100 would get pregnant that fast and that WE were top 15% in our class. I might have high-fived Ryan...

We got a lovely photo - it looks like an alien - that I've posted above for your viewing pleasure. I just LOVE how they added in my age...as if being 30 wasn't a smack in the face now I get to see it every time I look at my first ultrasound. Awesome. Anyway, we are thrilled this is happening. Still too early to tell the world but we shout our private excitement every day. God is good and we are very blessed.
