What to do...what to do....

Brad and I can't decide if we should find out if the baby is a boy or a girl! Any thoughts?!?!?

P.S. Thank you, Roger, for the advice!

P.P.S. Baby Emmel is 15 weeks today!

2nd Doctor's Visit - Monday, October 6th

The Emmel family of three ventured back to the doctor's office on Monday. Everything is looking good! We heard the heartbeat and had a quick ultrasound. Our next appointment is November 3rd. Then, we go back on November 24th for a sonogram!!! If we want to find out the sex of the baby, that will be the day! But, we still can't decide if we want to find out or wait until the baby arrives... decisions, decisions!! Either way, we have decided that we are going to keep the baby's name a secret. So, we'll all have at least one suprise on the big day... maybe two if we wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl!

WEEK 13 - Friday, October 3rd

This past Friday marked the 13th week for Baby Emmel. Right now, he or she is about the length of your finger!! The baby's vocal cords are forming.... yikes!! :) Better to keep us up all night in April....
Also, up until now, the baby's intestines were actually right outside his or her body inside the umbilical cord! Now, the intestines are going inside the body. (Kind of icky to think about!!)
On Monday, Brad, Jenn, and Baby are going to the doctor. Hopefully, we will get to actually hear the heartbeat this time. At our 9 week check-up, the doctor could see a heartbeat on the ultrasound, but we could not hear it yet. Keep your fingers crossed for this visit!!!!
