It's DH's birthday today, and that's always an exciting day, but today was even better. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat! It was so amazing! At first we weren't sure the doctor was going to be able to find it - she kept saying "that's you... that's you...", but a few tense moments in and there was the woosh-woosh-woosh! What a beautiful sound! :)
And for our birthdays (mine is Saturday), my friend M (aka Mother Goose and Ruthless) got us our first item of baby clothing: a sweet little white sleeper. So adorable. I still can't believe there is going to be a person in our house that small very soon. But instead of being overwhelmed and scared, like I thought I might be (and like I was at the diapers), I was pretty excited. :) And so was DH. We can't wait!
Last night we got to hang out with some friends of ours who just had a baby a few weeks ago, and it was awesome to hold him and think about how someday soon I'll be holding my baby, and I'll be the one leaving the room to nurse, and DH will be the one asking "Is it my turn to hold my son yet?" It was also really cool to see how interested DH is in all of the baby "things" - the little vibrating chair, the clothing, the changing stuff. He's still pretty scared to hold a newborn (though he did a bit), but he stared at the baby a whole lot. I love that he's so interested. I can't wait until he is (well, we both are) learning about our little one!!
