Big News!

I think pretty much everybody knows this now bc I'm a big blabbermouth, but we are going to be parents! Everything is going great- I'm at 10 weeks along right now. We had a doctor's appointment last week and got to hear the heartbeat, which was AMAZING! We felt really lucky bc the doctor told us there was only a 10% chance that we would be able to hear something this early, but right after he said that we heard, "guh guh, guh guh" (why did I just think of that scene in "Dirty Dancing" with Patrick Swayze putting his hand on his heart trying to teach Baby how to dance.....these random things are just popping into the head these days).

This week, the baby is about 1 and 1/4 inches long and about the size of a kumquat. Our due date is 10/13/09. We're very excited and can't wait to meet Baby Maldoff!

Here's our first baby bump pic at 10 weeks:


This early, it's really more of just a bloated belly, a "food baby" you could say. We took this when my parents visited, so our foods of choice consisted of pizza, burgers, chili dogs, ice cream, and pretty much any other unhealthy thing we scarf down.
More updates to come soon!
Love,
Lyndsey & Marc
