OK, I can finally start telling people what I’ve been keeping secret.

Kelly and I are going to have a baby!!!

A few weeks ago, we had our first ultrasound.  That was amazing!  The baby was less than 3/4″ long at the time, but its heart was already beating (I could see it beating 3 times per second, but we couldn’t hear it), and it was already moving around.  Apparently it sleeps for about 23 hours a day (lucky!), but it must have got disturbed during the ultrasound because it was in a different position at the end than it was at the beginning.

That was probably the coolest thing I have ever seen.  I can’t imagine how this could get any cooler, but if I listen to my friends who already have kids, it must get way better.  I can’t wait to be overwhelmed when the baby is born in September!

We’re almost 12 weeks, so we won’t know for another couple months if we should be decorating the baby’s room in our new house with pink or blue.  The new house, by the way, is also due in September.

I’m so excited….
