Wow, there's a baby in there!



Today Ben and I went in to the doctor for our first baby appointment!

We were lucky and got to have an ultrasound, so we got a great picture of little baby Schielke (or "Lando" as Ben likes to call him/her).

When we saw the baby for the first time on the monitor, it was a very surreal moment - something that I've only ever seen on TV and once with Kimmy! There was actually a baby in there, who knew? All this time Ben had to take my word for it that I was pregnant. :) The baby was moving around, too, and we could see the little heart beating. Lando's first picture is attached to this post.

The doctor said that everything looks good so far and the baby will be born around April 20, 2009.

We can't even imagine what you guys were feeling when you first set eyes on her (rooting for the girls side) or him (rooting for the boys side too !) It had to be beyond words at that moment. Congratulations Mom & Dad to be & Baby makes three xxx Love Uncle Tom & Aunt Vicki & Lola K from Port Angeles !

There is a completely difference feeling when its your little blob on the screen. A bit surreal and heartwarming. Go baby go!
