Sneak Peak

Yesterday Scott and I started our morning the best way expecting parents could...watching our baby.  We had our first ultrasound where we could see little baby mac moving around, turning his head, raising his arms and bending his legs.  It was beyond amazing and he is so incredibly adorable already!  (I am saying "he" to avoid saying "it", since we are waiting to find out what we are having until it is born.)


The nurse was really friendly and informative; we spent about 45 minutes watching our baby on the big screen as the nurse took measurements and pointed out all the little parts of our baby.  We saw the heart beating and all four chambers, the brain, kidneys, stomach, arms, legs, hands, feet, and face all at different angles.  Everything is right as it should be!  We actually found that we are not as far along as we had first been told. The measurements show that we are in week 18 instead of week 20, which gives us a new due date of March 27th.


We have had quite the exciting week: I had my last day at LSS, we got a glimpse of our baby and we are taking off for our European vacation this afternoon.  (Well, be sure to share the highlights!)

You can see the heart in this profile.

You can kind of see the right foot.  It is in the middle of the screen.
