Ahead of Schedule

Elyse and I went for the ultrasound last thursday. It was possibly one of the most exciting experiences I've ever witnessed. The baby didn't even look like an alien which is what I've been expecting all along. It actually looked like a real human being! From what we can tell it has all it's fingers and toes which is a huge blessing. It was actually drinking when we were watching it which kind of looks like a fish breathing under water. So anyway, the lady who did the ultrasound told Elyse that she measured 23 weeks where we thought she was only 21 weeks. So now we might be 2 weeks ahead of schedule which puts the due date at late July or early August instead of the middle of August. So we're not exactly sure which it is right now, but people say trust the ultrasound. And I know nothing better than to listen to people who've had a baby before so I guess that's what we're going with. I decided not to post any of the pictures but if anyone would like some we do have some pretty neat ones and we'd be happy to e-mail them so just ask. ta-ta for now.

Hi you guys. I just found you through Leanne's blog site. A very late congrats to you two. We're thinking about coming out to Manitoba for Christmas this year (I know that's a long time away, so hopefully we'll make it out there before that too.). We'll be looking forward to meeting the new addition to the family.
