March 21, 2012 was a day full of emotions. Early in the morning, we got the news that my grandma Flora Garza de Saldivar had gone to be with the Lord after months of being in an out of the hospital. She was 86 years old and had lived a very full and blessed life. While we knew this was coming and that she is now enjoying her new home, it was still hard to realize that she was not going to be around anymore. I loved what my sister wrote on her blog:
Flora-Plus
Later that same day we had our first doctor’s appointment. We are six weeks pregnant and after our new doctor (previous doctor stopped seeing OB patients!) heard about our struggles he suggested an ultrasound to make sure everything is where it needs to be.
Sure enough, the ultrasound tech tells us “there is definitely a baby in there!” and we actually got to see a valve (the heart) moving! We can’t hear it yet, but we can definitely see movement! David and I are in awe at God’s creation! How is it possible that at only six weeks there is already the beginning of a little heart moving! Wow! This was a life-changing experience! Here is the very first picture of Baby Ech!
