You and Me Plus 3!!!

We are so excited to say that we will be welcoming our third baby sometime in May 2011!  The due date is May 30, 2011, so as of today I am nine weeks.  We are thrilled.  I have actually known since the last week in September.  I am going to post next what I wrote on the day I found out I was pregnant.  I have had it saved in the drafts until we were ready to share the news.  Week 5 and 6 I bled a lot.  So each day I would go and have blood work done and wait 24 looong hours for the results.  Well at the end of week 6 my hormone levels didn't double as they are supposed to every 48 hours.  I went from 20,000 to 27,000 in two days.  I was called in for an ultrasound and heard the best sound - the heartbeat.  I was given several pictures but warned to be cautious.  So kept the news to ourselves a bit longer.  Last Thursday, the 21st, I had another ultrasound and our sweet baby is doing great and even has little arms, legs, and a spine!  My next appt is Nov. 11.
