The ultrasound went great!  Our little baby weighed 11 ounces and is right on schedule on his growth.  We took Jacob with us, and it wasn't until we got to the waiting room that I realized that Jacob thought the baby was arriving that day!  I think he was a little disappointed after I told him no.  The conversation went like this:  Jacob:  Are you having a baby?  Me:   Yes, we have talked about it and I am going to have a baby.  Jacob:  Then I get to see the baby today <excitement>.  Me:  (looking at daddy)  Do you mean are we having the baby today?  Jacob: YES  Me:  I am sorry honey, not today!  It is an ultrasound.  We still have to wait until May!
