***Hip Hip Hooray for Four Chambers of the Heart!***

We had our ultrasound this morning and everything was GREAT! Within 30 seconds of being in the room, the tech found the heart and showed us the four chambers of the heart. She explained that the tech that did our previous ultrasound was fresh out of college and had not quite perfected her ultrasounding techniques, to say the least. So we were quickly relieved. We got to spend the next 20 minutes just playing and looking at Baby! She showed us all 10 fingers and all 10 toes, along with plenty of other bones and organs. We even got a really good look at his face, including his eyes, nose, and mouth. We saw him yawn, scratch his head, and wiggle a lot! The most amazing thing to me was how when I felt him kick, I could actually see it on the screen! It was just an amazing feeling.


So needless to say, we got several really good pictures. The BEST ONE OF ALL is the first one. I kid you not...our son is ripped! We got a picture of his bicep muscle. You can see a bump for his shoulder, then a huge bump for his bicep! Lonnie was so proud! (okay, I know you're all saying, that's really not his muscle. But I prefer to believe that he is a muscular boy, not really chunky. I'm actually terrified that we're going to have a humongous baby, after seeing that picture!) Here's a breakdown of all the pictures.


#1 - Baby's bicep
#2 - More proof that it's a boy - butt shot on the bottom right, still not sure what's on the top left
#3 & 4 - Baby's face - profile of his eye, nose, and mouth

#5 - Baby's foot

Thanks for all your prayers!

That's great! I'm so happy everything checked out good! I've been keeping up with your blog! They got some great shots of him!

Well...Guess what? We're having a boy too! We found out on Wednesday! Hopefully you don't mind me copying, but I created a blog too for my family in Nebraska to keep up with the pregnancy. We have our ultrasound pictures posted as well. Take a look! Your baby's profile is so cute!!! I can't wait to see what he looks like! Take care and we'll be talking to you!
