I've been slacking! Lots to catch up! I'll start with our Easter reveal. We are currently living with my in laws while we start to build our new place. I bet we are about to live here a lot longer with our addition, but that's just fine. They have a finished basement that's bigger then our old house and it is on the lake. We decided to reveal to them on Easter because honestly they were getting suspicious. :) My mother in law was wondering why I hadn't received my Ovidrel shot this month. We got an Easter basket from Walmart and filled it with pink and blue peeps, pink and blue candy, and I put a prized egg in it with a poem that I borrow from a girl on the bump and our latest ultrasound picture. We went upstairs for Sunday breakfast and I said the Easter Bunny left your basket downstairs! They opened the egg but neither one had their reading glasses on so we had to pause for a moment. Then the tears started flowing and we all hugged and laughed. My mother in law never even got to the ultrasound so we had to point it out to her. It was a great moment and my father in law kept saying how this was the best Easter and called my mother in law Granny the rest of the day.

So today we had another ultrasound at the REs and right away the heartbeat showed up. I was so relieved that I cried right there on the table. It was 130 beats per minute and that flutter on the screen was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! I had a very small bleed that the ultrasound tech said wasn't a big deal, but it still worried me a little. They were releasing me to my OB, but then changed their minds at the last minute and want me to come in one more time in 7 - 10 days. Trace is so excited and videoed the heartbeat, but it is really hard to hear. All in all it was another great day!

The last two pictures are a conversation with Trace and a picture of his recent searches on his phone. He is going to be an awesome daddy!
