Baby Update

I guess I have forgotten the purpose of a blog...to post relevant updates in Ally's and my life.  Usually I wouldn't think there is much worth reporting, however, it turns out I have a baby on the way.  If only for the benefit of my future child, I should probably be a little more diligent.

23 Weeks- Things are progressing nicely.  Ally hasn't been sick at all through the pregnancy, which I think both of us have appreciated.  The downside is that it's made it that much more unreal for me since it has been more or less business as usual for me...at least until our 20 week ultrasound.  I was much more into that ten or so minutes that I thought I would be.  Very cool.  Seeing the little head, complete with both hemispheres of the brain.  The heart with the four chambers.  Hands, feet, kidneys, pelvis, femur- it was all so very exiting.  For those who don't know, we aren't finding out the gender until birth, so that was not part of the show, however, it didn't detract from the event at all.

The process of childbirth is truely amazing.  It's the most scary thing I have ever been excited for.  Can't wait until July.

Enjoy some pics for the U.S.
