The big ultrasound!

Posted on | September 11, 2011 | 8 Comments

My oh my.

This child inside of me, it has started rolling.  I'm seeing occasional bumps on my belly, and as soon as I touch it, it wiggles away.  What a simply amazing feeling.  I can't say it enough - every day with this little one it feels like a miracle.

Our big ultrasound was on Wednesday - and baby cooperated very well.  We saw a beautiful four chambered heart, gorgeous extremities, and thumb sucking galore (a trait inherited straight from daddy).  The other sac has shrunk nicely and all was healthy with our little peanut.  



 (3D baby!)

And my friends,

...

we have a GIRL!
