Big Day

Today is the day that I announce to the world that I am having a baby:-) A few special people knew before now and some were even privy to my other blog. I wanted to wait to make the official announcement until I heard the heartbeat. I heard it this morning. Apparently this baby already likes playing games. Little Acorn was hiding from the Doppler. That munchkin had me worried! Even the midwife was talking about getting a sonogram if she couldn't find a heartbeat. But she did eventually find it and it brought much relief. Jay is of course upset that she didn't find the second(he is convinced AGAIN that I am having twins).
I'm testing out Acorn as a nickname. I'm not sure it flows, but I'm going to give myself some time to get used to it. Maybe as we get to know our little person one will develop naturally. Perhaps Peek-a-boo? ;-)

I like Acorn. It's certainly creative and appropriate. You *are* just talking nicknames, here, right? Cuz I'm not sure Acorn Dunning is the perfect name for the future President of the United States...

:)

Love you.

Glad to hear all is well with the Periwinkle Acorn. :)
