A Milestone Is Reached


Those of you who have kids (or are familiar with prenatal developmental milestones) know that getting through the first trimester is a big deal. It is an even bigger deal when you perform all sorts of tricky scientific back-flips to make a baby happen the way we are making him/her happen. So, with that said, let me announce that we have reached the end of first trimester! Can I have a first trimester woo hoo?
Our baby is doing great so far. Betty and Sonia went to a visit this last Friday. When I asked how it went (I had to work) Betty said the baby's heart was making a very healthy "choo-coo, choo-coo" sound at about 150 beats per minute.
Sonia is doing much better as far as nausea is concerned and is unmistakably pregnant, as you can see in the following picture. Excellent!


Many thanks to you who are journeying, supporting, and praying with us. We're very grateful for you and are counting on you to continue coming along with us until we all get to meet our baby in person.

Congratulations on making it through the first trimester! After our conversations about boy vs. girl, I'm so curious to find out what you are having! Either way, baby Tovar will be PERFECT.
