Today we went for our 8 week appointment. It was a really great appointment! ...despite the fact that Dr. H is a HUGE Georgia Tech fan and confirmed he was "certain it was a baby yellow jacket he saw on the ultrasound". It totally made Curtis' day!
He also confirmed that we only have one. Our other little guy didn't make it, but Dr. H assured us that it was totally normal to see that this early on. Apparently, a lot of women become pregnant with twins and loose one early. But that little guy is in heaven and has lots of friends there!
BUT, we do have one SUPER, healthy, cute little baby! It's crazy to feel so much love for this little sweetie already, but I'm totally head over heals and can't wait until April! We're so thankful! The ultrasound was such a needed boost. I've been really, really sick. It's hard to actually feel pregnant in those moments. I'm definitely not complaining!! There's never been a better reason to be sick!
The baby was so active today! It wiggled all over the place, waving it's little arms and kicking it's little baby legs. It was really magical and such an overwhelming relief to know that it's doing great despite how I feel!
Thank you for all your prayers and sweet emails! It has really been so touching and overwhelming to know that people are interceding on our behalf. I promise I'm planning to write back some of you, but I've had a hard time getting too far from the bathroom! Yay for babies and answered prayers! We're totally blessed and humbled by our little baby blessing!
We go back in four weeks...

I am so happy for you! What a cute little baby already! Your joy is contagious and I can feel it just reading your words. It just gets better and better!!
I am sorry you are so sick. I was too and it is SO hard. Try the sea bands around your wrists if you haven't already. They helped me. I promise it gets better.
Maybe your vanishing twin and mine are playing together in heaven? I hope so. :-)
Love you and so excited for you!!
So precious!!!! We will continue to pray...I am beyond excited for ya'll! Praise the Lord!!! I can't wait to kiss that little baby jacket! :-)
Praise the LORD! So precious! Praying for yall!
Sarah...that sweet thing is definitely NOT a jacket! :-) I'm so happy for you! Hudson and I are praying for you every evening with our nightly prayers. The ultrasounds really do wonders for worrying minds!!! Glad everything looked great! You got a great picture!
Yellow Jacket! That doctor was just trying to get a good laugh out of you. That little precious baby looked way to cool to be a yellow Jacket fan. Love the ultrasound picture. Praying for health and that you will feel better soon.
Love it! Love it! Love it! I'm so excited for ya'll! Praying that the sickness gets better in the coming weeks as the first trimester draws to a close! BTW~ I also tried the sea bands, and they helped!!! (mainly for vertigo and motion-type sickness that I had while preggo with Noah). Can't wait to hear the next report on baby Yellow Jacket (really...this baby is a Bulldog!!!!)
Sarah~ I am so happy for you both!! I know you will make WONDERFUL parents, I have been praying for this day to come for you for the longest! GOD is GREAT!! Please keep us posted!
Still so excited for you Sarah! Was hoping for the twins for ya ;) but there will be a sis or brother in heaven for this little one. I passed your blog to a friend of mine that has been struggling to get pregnant, I knew it would be an encouragement to her hope you don't mind. Will continue to keep you & baby in my prayers!
yay=) i'm so excited for you two! what great parents you'll be!
