Stubborn Already...

Last week Tuesday, December 2, we had another doctor appointment. It was certainly a nerve racking appointment from a parents point of view. We went in to listen to the heart beat and after about 15 minutes of searching for the heart beat our doctor gave up and decided to do an ultrasound. Which I was excited about, because up until that point, Mark had never seen his little on on the Ultrasound machine, live! After laying down and them pulling up the picture, their our little Coconut was, heart beat and all. It certainly did give us a scare, but my dr. says that our little one is hiding so far behind my pelvic bone, it was no surprise she couldn't find the heart beat.

Also during our ultra sound, we learned that we have a live one! Little one, would not quit moving long enough to get a good picture. Proud Daddy seeing his child for the first time, was all smiles, especially when it decided to give a show and start punching and kicking into the air.... We even got to see it's spine and rib cage, very cool and creepy all that the same time, I must say.

Needless to say, Coconut is growing healthy and strong and doing just fine. So is Mom. I am feeling alot better and starting to show more and more. I did have my first run in with swollen feet the other night, but we wont talk about that =).

Thanks for your prayers and encouraging words through this time! We get to find out the first week of January if Coconut is a boy or a girl!
