Oh I love this! I was fortunate enough to go with my daughter-in-law for her first ultra-sound of our granddaughter....I'll never forget the joy of that moment!! :)

Congratulations, Kim. So gosh, the baby must not be born yet if this was barely written. Congrats on the news!

well, I remember my daughter in law being so mesmerized by her ultra sound of our grandson. I guess you caught that ultrasound fever, Kim. So sweet.
