The new addition to the Santerre Family...

As of this coming Tuesday, I will be 12 weeks pregnant. We will be at the end of the first trimester.

This past Wed. Jan. 7th, we went to hear the heartbeat for the first time. It was really kind of surreal. We first asked the Dr. if that was it when he first put the device onto my belly. He said, "nope thats yours". We kind of chuckled. In the movies it's that loud. I guess we expected that it would just be right there and we'd have no question that is what we heard. Well we were wrong. While Jed and I listened very intently and me not really breathing so I could hear, both heard little flutters we thought were the heartbeat. They could have been. Baby must have been moving around quite a bit since the Dr. had a hard time following it after he heard it the first time. But as he said, with his trained ear, everything is great and we should be out of the woods for any mishaps. Thank God!

Please keep us in your prayers that everything continues as it should.

Hopefully we'll keep up to date a little bit more now that we have some exciting things happening and it's not all about Gus. =) Although if you lived with him you'd probably find him as exciting as we do.
