Though I'm pretty sure neither of us can believe it, yet. I understand we won't truly believe it until after the Bean is born. (Even then, sleep deprivation can play some real tricks.)
As of this writing, we haven't actually told any of you, yet, which makes it all the more surreal. It's hard for us to wait until a reasonable time, like after the first ultrasound peek into Marcey's belly, which is coming up on January 24th. We've been reading all we can... which is an incredibly huge amount, suggesting that we are not the only parents-to-be who are desperate for an ever-greater connection with something about the size of a lentil. This is the week of heart development, apparently, quickly followed by the nervous system. The Tin Man and Scarecrow would be pleased; the Lion, however, will have to wait a bit.
You sneaky, sneaky women! Congratulations! We're so excited to be able to follow you along on this amazing journey and see your little lentil bean grow!
