Dr. Theis did an ultrasound and we were able to see the little "gummy bear!" That is what Dr. Theis is calling the baby since it does resemble a gummy bear. We could see its little heart beating, its head, and body. I am estatic. It made the whole experience seem real. I just wish Les could have been there too. Dr. Theis took pictures of the baby and burned them onto a CD. Les will be home on Sunday. I am going to show him the CD of the baby and then we will post all the pictures for you to see. The new little Lawless Baby. We are so excited! He said the baby will be due on May 30, give or take a few days.
Keep looking and checking in for more information!

Congrats Amanda & Les! I'm so excited for the two of you! This is all going to be so much fun!
Great...so glad to hear it all went well. That first appointment is so neat and seeing the little one for the first time makes it all so real. We had weekly ultrasounds for the first 12 weeks so if you want you can check our archives (Jan '06) and see how much they grow and change in just one week. Pretty incredible! One week they looked like rice...the next week they had arm and leg buds and were moving (9 weeks)! Here are some of the good website you asked for:

Have fun and let me know if you get bored...I have TONS more!!!
One more (ok...TWO!!!)...
www.babystyle.com has cute maternity and baby clothes. You can also start a registry for maternity clothes (Julie and I both did this...great for people to buy you Christmas presents!). Shipping is kind of pricey for just one item but each additional item is only $.50. And if you type in TRYAGAIN as a promotion it will take 10% off your order!
and
www.poshtots.com has cute EVERYTHING. Diaper bags, bedding, etc.
The end...can you tell I'm excited!?!?!
Amanda and Les -
I am so excited for you! Enjoy this wonderful and exciting time. It is so great to have this blog for us to "share" in your joy and watch baby Lawless grow!
