The First Pictures

We had our first ultrasound yesterday. It was amazing. We heard the baby's heartbeat and actually saw the baby rollover to face us! They couldn't tell this soon if it was a boy or a girl. We will find out in 8 weeks when we go for the second ultrasound. They said the baby was healthy and had a healthy heartbeat. I felt like a huge weight was lifted off of me when I actually saw that there was really a baby and a heartbeat. Marshall was very excited, too. He actually teared up a little when he saw our baby! Here are the first pictures of our little baby!!













This is a 4D image of the baby. I think it has my chin!

This is a video of the baby moving!

We're having a BABY!

Marshall and I are so excited to let everyone know that we are expecting a little baby! Right now I am in my 9th week. Everything seems to be going great so far. I'm feeling a little sick pretty much all of the time, but never actually getting sick. My first ultrasound will be August 25, which will be my 12th week. We can't believe how fast it's happening! The due date for Little McCall is March 7. Marshall and I feel that the timing couldn't be more perfect. I'll be almost finished with my first trimester by the time my kids come back to school (and hopefully finished with feeling nauseous all the time!). Then, I will only have to go back to work for about a month to finish up the school year after the baby comes! Marshall and I are so excited and can't wait to meet our little baby. Please be praying for us as we prepare to be parents (yikes!) and for our little growing baby over the next 7 months. Look for our next post after our ultrasound!
