Jumping for joy!

Today I am officially 5 weeks pregnant! I've mostly completed building a heart and it should start beating this week (although it's not detectable by ultrasound for a few more weeks)! This week's major developments are the creation of our little peanuts eyes, ears, nose and budding limbs, I really hope they have Jake's cute nose! We were both SO excited when the blood test came back positive! Between that and setting up some of the first appointments everything is finally starting to seem real! We're still just so excited!

Information about our little peanut (our deemed nickname currently):
Estimated due date: February 27th 2015 (245 days)

How mom's feeling: Exhausted (the fatigue hit hard today), sore, a little nauseous in the afternoon, but all around very excited and thankful for how supportive Jake is!

How dad's feeling: Excited, interested in everything going on, looking forward to everything!

A little gift from God

On our 2 year anniversary God decided to give us a little gift. It wasn't expected, but we are SO thankful for it. What did He give us you may ask? A baby! Actually it's currently a little embryo about the size of a poppy seed. But it's a gift that keeps on giving and keeps growing and growing. By next week it will already have a little heartbeat. Can you believe that?! We are so excited to start this new journey and welcome our little bundle of joy into this world!

Information about Baby Marzen #1:
Estimated Due Date: February 27th 2015 (T-minus 250 days!)

How mom is feeling: Still in disbelief! Physically feeling pretty good, just a little crampy and a little nauseous throughout the day, but overall not too bad!

How dad is feeling: Also in disbelief! And excited :)
