Ultrasound

A few weeks ago Karen and I nervously visited the doctor expecting to get the first view of little baby Gardner.  First, let me say that ultrasounds are amazing.  It is absolutely crazy what is going on in my wife's stomach.  God completely blew my mind when I saw my baby and heard its heart beat.  So we thought we would share this moment of amazement with you.  


So the upside down thing in that black bubble is baby Gardner.  If you look closely you can see little arm and leg buds.  The top picture is the baby's heartbeat, which was really fast at 182 beats per minute, but the doctor said it was OK.  So in another month or so we can find out the sex of the baby...so be sure to stay tuned for more pics and info.

Also, if you think about us please pray for our new family.  Pray for the baby and its development, pray for Karen because she gets sick a lot, and pray for Karen and I as we prepare to be parents.  Thanks ya'all!
