Surprise!!!! We're pregnant! Well Kelly is at least! Some of your knew - others didn't - we wanted to wait until after our first appointment to make sure all was well before spilling the beans! It's our little honeymoon baby.
We had our first OB appointment today and it was pretty amazing! The baby is 8 weeks and 6 days. It has a really strong heartbeat of 179!! It was kicking it's little legs around for us which was really sweet and was also very comforting -- don't know how 'comforting' that will be a few weeks when it's kicking ribs and kidneys, but for now - very comforting!
We were told baby is very very healthy and so far it's a perfect pregnancy! Kelly was sick for only about 2 weeks around Thanksgiving and now she's feeling great - hopefully that'll stick around!
The due date is July 16, 2010 :)
We are so excited!! It's a pleasant surprise! Both sets of new "grandparents" are excited as well... "Grandpa" Simmons won't show it, but we know he is! ;) All the great grandparents are thrilled too!
We apologize for not posting recently - we found out at the beginning of November and since then we've been so busy plus we were so anxious for everyone to know the good news that we didn't have anything to say that was nearly exciting!! We'll try and post some additional updates such as photos from Halloween, Christmas decorations, etc soon!
Click here to see more photos of Baby Anderson - there is a 3D image that they took at the doctors as well - you can see little legs and arms!
Love,
Matt & Kelly
