Little Mover!

So, today we had our 12 week check-up.  As usual, I get myself all worried about everything.  Needless to say, all my worry is in vain.  The Dr. said that the baby is doing fine.  I have successfully made it through the first trimester.  He did a short ultrasound to hear the heartbeat.  The little one was moving and kicking around so much it was hard to get a read.  Every time he found the heartbeat, he was treated to a big kick, or flip.  It was really quite funny to see.

This started a lot of conversation in my house because Aunt Dawn told the boys that "girls wiggle more."  I had to spend the evening telling them that we weren't sure yet.  Eli and Isaac were thrilled, but Caleb insisted that we do not need a girl, because you "can't wrestle girls."  I told him that he could hold her hand and love her if it is a girl.  When I asked if he would like that he replied, "of course not."  These kids are cracking me up! 

Our next appointment is on December 1st.  That just happens to be the boys' birthday.  They asked if we could know what it is for their birthday.  They were a little disappointed when I told them probably not.  They are nearly as impatient as me!

I just feel truly blessed.  I can't understand why God saw fit to bless us with this opportunity, but we are all overjoyed.
