..Has been revamped with new vision!! Namely, the vision of a tiny little fetus that is growing day by day into what will someday (roughly around the 14th of October) be a BABY!!!
Its something worth writing about, thinking about, dreaming about, smiling about.
For a rough update, Baby Ziggy (his/her "en utero" name) is 12 weeks and 2 day old. We have a 6 week old ultrasound of the little guy where the only thing confirmed was that the baby is at serious risk of inheriting his dad's huge head. At 11 weeks we got to hear Ziggy's heartbeat. Hard to express in words all that that single moment held. Ziggy is now about 2.5 inches long (about the size of a plum) and working hard consuming nutrients all day long, leaving me with hunger pains about every hour and a half.
Seriously, its nuts.
We are also proud to say that our baby is officially tail-less. Its a good feeling to know that I will in fact give birth to a human in another 6 months. Wow, 6 months. Lots to do, probably even more to feel. Feelings as of late have included ecstasy, peace, doubt, fear, anxiety, joy, and anticipation. For some reason I thought I would have life a little more figured out before bringing a child into the world and passing on my values to him/her. Well, I guess we still have 6 months. Wow, 6 months...
We will definitely keep everyone updated throughout the coming months...but for now I am going to go focus on refraining from that third bagel and cream cheese of the day.

Also, Hooray for Ziggy! Peace!
Wow. Six months to figure out life, that's it? Good luck... Hey, for what it's worth, I think you two have life figured out way more than you realize. God's no dummy in making you parents :-) Congrats! - K
