A wonderful Christmas present!

We had our 20 week ultrasound today and the news is all good. We got to see the little one's hands and feet and face and heart and kidneys and brain and stomach etc. Everything was normal and healthy. This is obviously a huge relief for us and wonderful answer to prayer. Thank you to everyone praying for us.

We didn't want to find out the sex, so we don't know if it is a little boy or girl. Whatever it is, it is very cute - it riggled around a lot and at one point straightened it's leg out. We got a few little pictures and a video of parts of the ultrasound so I'll be posting the pictures some time tonight.

Obviously, we are thrilled. Half way there!

On a different note, my brother Michael and his wife Mandy are due Christmas Eve. Apparently the baby is engaged, but is quite comfortable and has more room to grow so they don't expect my little niece or nephew before the due date. In any case, he or she will be the first grandchild in the family, so when it decides to make an appearance it will be another great Christmas present.
