Blessed

I got to hear the baby's heartbeat today when I had my ultrasound. Finally! :D I don't think there is anything more wonderful than seeing and hearing your baby for the very first time. No matter how many kids I have each "first time" always brings a tear to my eye. I am so lucky to be able to build the family that I want, when there are so many other worthy would-be-parents out there who cannot. It makes me feel very blessed. Even on mornings such as this, where Ellie peed on my clothes instead of in the toilet, I know how lucky I am...Sure, sometimes I have to recite that to myself so that I don't forget, but deep down I really do know :D

So, another 3 weeks until my next appointment. My Dr. does them every 3 weeks instead of every 4,which doesn't bother me a bit. I am really loving the fact that I only have ONE Dr. instead of FIVE like before. :D And now I have picture proof that I really am pregnant so others don't think I am just going crazy with all of these raging hormones.
