The First Picture


.......and a due date. Well yesterday was our first Dr. Apt. Ryan got off work early and we went together. We were both ready to go way to early, as is always the case when your nervous. It was so scary not knowing what would happen, if everything would be OK, would we like the Dr., would they do an ultra sound, would we see the baby? That is only a portion of what was going though our heads. But in the end it was much better than expected. Dr. Beller is a very nice younger Dr. joked around the whole time, and made us both at ease (if you've seen 'Knocked Up' it actually had a lot of similarities). His nurse is also very friendly and the office is very nice. The actual procedures weren't as much fun but also not as bad as I thought it would be either. The last thing they did was the ultra sound and while holding Ryan's hand we saw our baby for the first time, what a feeling that is. I've been with my siblings to get theirs done and yet I couldn't have predicted what that would be like, I can't explain the feelings I had, and It is just amazing to be a part of. The official due date is Oct 7th. On our way out they gave the baby tons of presents for his/her 7 week 1 day birthday :)
