Well, baby wanted to be modest and not show if we are going to have a boy or a girl...but that's ok. :) Either one we will be completely ok with because God has a plan and a purpose for this little one and we will do our very best to raise this baby to be a follower a Christ. Even though we couldn't find out what the gender is, we still were able to get some very awesome pictures of the littlest one. :)  The lady doing the ultrasound actually said that birth mom was measuring at 17 almost 18 weeks, putting her due date to be around March 5th...so we will see what happens when we go for future check ups.

This appointment was my first appointment both with birth mom and where I got to see a baby and hear the heartbeat. Wow! That was the coolest thing I could have ever asked for!! I am very blessed to be able to have such a great relationship with our birth mom, and to grow such a bond and love for her and her own family!!  She truly is an amazing woman and God knew what he was doing when He brought us together like he did!! :)

Below are the recent pictures of our little one that will be here before we know it!!! Baby O...we are ready for you!!! <3 <3

Looking at us...almost like s/he knew we were taking a picture ;-)

Baby O,

Words can't express enough how awesome it was to not just see you move all over the place on the screen...and be able to make out that cute head, cute nose, and see your little arms move...but to be able to be there to hear your heart beat just took my breath away. You truly are a miracle and we are forever thankful for this wonderful opportunity to be able to call you our son or daughter and how much we love you already.  You will always know who your birth mom and dad are and how much they love and care for you.  You will also know how much God loves you and cares for you and how He also adopted you into His kingdom.  You will always know that even though your birth parents were sad they knew that this was the best for you and only wanted the best for you.  You are loved by so many people and that is just plain awesome!! :)  Keep growing strong and healthy and I'm looking forward to many more appointments to come! Hugs and kisses to you baby!!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
