Whoa, we had a our first ultrasound today, and it was AMAZING!!! It's official, we are having "a" baby. We escaped the odds of having twins (sigh) for now. Daddy won't have to give up all his toys just yet! (lol)
Laurie, our ultrasound tech, showed us our little gummy bear. It litteraly is that size at this stage. It has a healthy heartbeat of 179 beats per minute and measures in at 2.27cm.
Angel and I were in awe when we saw the baby heart flutter like a butterfly. I have heard many stories of family and friends, but it is very surreal when it is your own. We learned today that our little baby is 9 weeks and is expected to be due November 15th. Just right in time to be the turkey for thanksgiving!

Hi baby,
the world and i will be waiting for you.
Stay close to your mom and be ready for life outside.
God bless you.
Congratulations you two! We are looking forward to meeting the little one. Ed and I are here for you every step of the way. Please let us know if you need anything. And thanks for creating this site so we can stay up to date. Marissa can't wait to have a new playmate!
I love that your baby is the size of a gummy bear. Thanks for sharing that, I miss you both (well all three) so much!
Hello my little nephew/niece or better yet, little Laker Baby! We are all awaiting your arrival and though it may be months away we are all very excited and anxious to hold you for the first time! I'm sure you can't wait to get out too! Your mommy and daddy are two of my most favorite people in the world... They not only will be your parents, but you will find that they will be your best friends and will always be there for you in good times and bad. And you may not know it yet, but you will be an instant star in our little family... well actually, our family is pretty big, but you'll know because it'll be the people fighting over who gets to hold you everyday until you get sick of us! Your daddy and I are pretty tight. I know him very well. He's my best friend in the whole wide world (hopefully, you get one of those too!). You'll find that we like to argue over pointless things called basketball stats and spend a lot of time screaming at a box with moving pictures called a TV... those moving pictures usually involve guys who wear purple and gold and bouncing a round object called a ball. Silly huh? Yeah, we know. Hopefully, you'll end up loving this silly thing and spend a lot of time screaming at these moving pictures with us! Your mother? Well, her and I like to argue over dumb little things to, but I love her too. She's a very special person and will be the one you brag about to all your friends about who has a better mommy. Your other aunts and uncles and grandparents will be the one's you go to when you think your parents are being unfair, but we'll just tell you that they are only thinking of what's best for you. Yes, the world is waiting for your arrival... until then, enjoy your cozy home and give your mommy a kick every now and then when you're bored and want attention!
Your Uncle,
Bao :)
