Trimester #1...Complete!

Our baby has officially made it to four months!

The latest report from the doctor says that the little one is as healthy as can be.  Our baby was extremely active at our latest appointment, jumping up and down, tapping on his/her mom's tummy!  He/she even gave us a little wave as we were watching it through the ultrasound. 

Mary has been doing extremely well ever since she has escaped the constant sickness often associated with the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.  With the exception of a bad day here and there, she has rarely been feeling nausea symptoms of any kind.  She claims she wouldn't even know she was pregnant, except for that cute little baby bump that has started to show in her belly! 

The baby also had his/her first encounter with Grandma this past weekend.  Mary's mom spent the weekend in California and spent the majority of the weekend talking to Mary's belly!  The baby is looking forward to meeting grandpa this Christmas when Mary and Steve spend their first Christmas in New Jersey. 

Lastly, many of you have been inquiring about the sex of the baby.  Upon our last appointment, the doctor would not give us any definite answers.  But, the doctor did mention she was pretty sure (90%) that if we're thinking about colors to paint the baby's room, pink wouldn't be such a bad choice...

We will update again in a month or so after our next trip to the doctor! 

Love,

-Mary and Steve
