Introducing...

Madelyn Grace Burns!

As most of you know by now, we are the soon-to-be proud parents of a baby girl! We couldn't be happier. Sorry this is coming so late, but I know all of you are more interested in pictures than anything coming out of my mouth. So, I'm shutting up. Please meet our little girl Madelyn Grace.

She is as healthy as can be. At the time of the ultrasound (11/11/10) all of her measurements put her right at 18 weeks just like we thought. That means we're at 20 weeks now - halfway there! She's got long legs (like her momma) and her mouth is constantly moving (like her daddy). Actually, she is constantly moving. All those, um, gastrointestinal movements I thought I was experiencing was actually Madelyn working on her tae-bo. We've got one healthy active baby.

I never knew how magical it is to feel your baby move. Being the worrier that I am, I sometimes worry that I might have done something to hurt her. You know, ate one piece of candy too many, stretched too far, lifted too much. And right about that time, I feel her move and all is well. Thanks for that God.

Oh yes, I registered this past weekend. Target and Babies R Us. Nothing subliminal here. Just passing on information. :-)

To wrap it up, here is the 20 week Baby Burns Bump update.

Happy Thanksgiving!
