Something new and exciting!

Hi Everyone!
I know I just started this blog, and I did two posts yesterday, but I wanted to keep everyone updated and not forget anything. It will be a few days till my next one probably.
I had my 2nd visit to the doctor tonight. Everything is going great! I gained right at 6 pounds over the last month...so I now weigh 158 lbs. At my first appointment, I was 152...so that is what my beginning pregnancy weight is...and I guess I'm eating just fine. LOL! Even with feeling icky or getting sick, I still manage to eat just plenty! hahaha
But the doctor said everything is going well and we are right on track!
I got to hear the babies heartbeat tonight. It really is amazing to hear that little heartbeat going strong and fast. It makes everything seem a little more real when I hear or see the baby. I'm sure it will be even weirder when I feel the baby move the first time! Yikes!!!
We are right at 12 weeks and I am hoping the sickness part is going to move on soon. My belly is sticking out some now and my pants are either super tight...or won't even button! UGH!!! I have a feeling I will be wearing alot of dresses over the spring and summer.
So thats all for now...We'll talk to you all again soon! :)
Love to everyone!
Dawn, Tony and the "beating peanut"... :) LOL

First Doctor's appointment

We had the first doctor's appointment on March 12th and they gave us the first pictures of our little peanut, or the "tumor" as Tony and Ed call it. They gave us the whole breakdown of how everything is supposed to go and appointments over the next few months. It's very interesting all of the changes going on with my body. This child is only the size of a plum right now, but it is causing quite a commotion. The morning, noon and night sickness is not very fun! I do miss eating one of my favorite things, raw sushi, but it's all worth it and I can have it again after the baby is born, so thats ok. :)

The next doctor's appointment is this Monday evening, April 13th...Untill then, here's the 1st pic from the Ultrasound! :)

Love to all!

Dawn, Tony and the peanut :)

So here's the site...

Well, with friends and family all over the country, it's going to be hard to keep everyone updated during this completely new and uncharted adventure for us. So we are going to keep a blog with updates at least every week so everyone knows what is going on in this crazy thing called our first baby. So make sure to check back often...we are excited and hope that we can keep everyone in the loop so they can experience this with us. First ultrasound pictures will be posted soon so...hope you all enjoy the next 7 months of our pregnancy and then we'll have to change the name of this to Tony, Dawn and ??? :)
Talk to you all soon!
Love,
Dawn and Tony
