Baby and the City

I figured it is time to tell the blog world that Shawn and I are expecting our first baby in March. When we found out we were pretty shocked, but we were so happy! I was able to tell a few friends and a lot of my dad's family in person on our West Coast trip. It was so fun to see people's reactions. This will be the first grand baby for mine and Shawn's families!

It has been a rough month and a half for me, but I'm starting to feel better and am excited to get out and enjoy the city again. I found a great Dr. on the Upper East Side. The whole office has been great, and I've been very impressed by the whole staff. For the most part I have been on my way to see the Dr. right at my appointment time, which is such a welcome change from normal doctor's offices. We went in for our first scan last week. The pictures were incredibly clear, and I was totally amazed with all of the details we could see....arms, legs, heartbeat, etc.

First thing on our list is to find a bigger apartment. The baby probably won't have its own room, but we'll make a baby zone instead! We found a place that is only a few blocks from where we live now and only a half block to Central Park. We are so excited to meet our baby in March! Many more updates to come!
