Excited about the Future

Welcome to our blog. I promise to try and update it as much as possible. So far, we are nine weeks along (almost 10) and everything is going great. Well, I say they're going great but I'm sure Jenni would possibly disagree due to the horrible bouts of morning sickness she's been enduring ha ha. We were lucky enough to have an early sonogram, and I gotta say, that was probably the coolest thing I've ever seen. I mean sure, it looked like the weather channel tracking a hurricane, but from the moment I saw the tiny little heartbeat, it finally started to sink in that Jen's gotta baby in there!! The due date we've been given is May 4th so I guess there's a good chance that we could have two birthdays on the same day! The heartbeat was 160bpm which we're told is great, and he's (yes I said he, because I refuse to think that there may be a little girl in there) about the size of a peanut. The idea of that just cracked me up, so from then on, our little baby has been named "Peanut". After looking at the pictures, Jenni said she thinks he looks like a ninja turtle, so I guess Peanut's better than what we could have named him ha ha. One thing that totally freaked me out is that the baby already has elbows. Not sure why that catches me as strange, but the fact that there's not even ears, and he just grew the flippers that will become his hands, the fact he's got elbows is just amazing.

Heh, forgot to tell you guys, last night Jenni had to go to Wal-Mart to get some groceries, and apparently being pregnant has given her a overly sensitive nose, (we call it the "Super Sniffer") cause she was going down the pickle isle and was so overwhelmed by the smell she had to buy some immediately. She told me she didn't even get the cold food put away before she had to eat one!
