Wherein life changes forever…
As some of you may already have seen, by way of 
helloheather's post here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/helloheather/299545.html, we are expecting a baby!
Expecting it to do what, you might ask? Well, you know, baby stuff. What they do. Grow and whatnot. To be honest, I don't know much about them. But this comic sure puts the mind at ease...

Anyway, the baby is healthy and everything is good (according to the doctor. my rather freaked out mind says otherwise! 
) . I got to see the heart beating last night on the ultrasound. It was surreal and grounding at the same time. I still haven't quite wrapped my mind around the whole thing. But, surprise surprise, I've already got pictures!

The baby is due at the end of June (June 26th is what the doctor said) putting Heather at 8.5 weeks pregnant. She is doing fine with the only real "problem" being that she is now always cold. Normally she's the warmest person in the room but this baby seems to be sucking all the heat from her.
