Our first look at the baby:)

So last week John and I finally got to go to our first OB appointments. The first one was not terribly exciting, but the second appointment was full of excitement as we finally got to see an ultrasound of our precious little baby:) The picture on the top is a view from the top of the head and the bottom picture is of the baby laying on its side. It was so amazing to actually see a glimpse of our little baby! The doctor said we were right on track with how far along I am in my pregnancy. She also said that the baby's femur bones are a week ahead of schedule...we could have a tall baby, although not very surprised there:) This ultrasound is at 17 weeks and a few days. I am now in my 18th week and feeling great.

My baby bump at 16 weeks

Can't believe the baby is already 16 weeks old! Only four more weeks until we are halfway there.

Rhythm and Booms

John and I spent the evening at the home of our friends, Deb and Gordie, awaiting the fireworks display in Madison called Rhythm and Booms. For those of you who do not live in Madison, this is a fireworks display set to music. It's great having the opportunity to watch them from across the lake, and what a beautiful day it was to enjoy them.
