You’ve certainly grown a good bit over even the last two weeks! You’ve gone from a blob on an ultrasound, to something resembling a silhouette of a person! Little arm and leg buds are sprouting forth from our little Sprout, and there’re even the beginnings of a head.

It’s so very fascinating, how life develops in the womb!

Your mom is doing pretty well, all things considered. She hasn’t really had morning sickness, but has been very tired and has been taking a bunch more naps than she usually does. You wear her out!

Hi there! My name is Kevin and I’m gonna be your dad! It’s indescribable, how one event can be exhilarating, terrifying, and downright awesome at the same time. I know it’s dark and warm where you are, but there’s a bunch more wonder out here in the world that I can’t wait to show you!

Nothing more than a smudge on an ultrasound. But, around February 3, 2014, this little blob will be a newborn human being: You!

We are not telling family until just after the first trimester, and the suspense is killing us! Chances of miscarriage are greatest up until that point, so we really don’t want to get everyone’s hopes up; our own hopes are pretty high, as it is.

You will be so very welcome into our family, and we can’t wait to show you to everyone!
