Ultrasound Pics...better late than never

I finally got some the pictures scanned from our last ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. I was 20 weeks, 5 days at the time. The baby was so big that he couldn't fit in one picture, so we have a lot of pictures of different body parts.

Jen's Wedding

I made a super-short trip home last weekend to be a bridesmaid in Jennifer Parks (now Jennifer Hooker)'s wedding. It was exhausting, but I'm so glad I was able to be there for the big day. Jen and Brian looked great, and you could see so much love and happiness on their faces. (I spent a lot of the ceremony trying not to cry!) Didn't bring my camera, but here are a couple of photos from my dad.

Doctor Visit

We went to the doctor and sonographer today for our big halfway point visit. I'm going to keep this post brief, because I have to go pack for my trip home to Jen's wedding, but the doctor visit went great! All of the baby's body parts looked like they're developing appropriately, and he's still measuring a week older than my due date. Sonographer said 99% chance it's a boy. The coolest part was probably that the baby had the hiccups during the sonogram, so we could see his chest hiccupping!

Here's the growing belly!

We got a copy of the sonogram on DVD and tons of photos, but I didn't have time to scan them at school this afternoon. So, I took a quick photo of a couple of them...not good quality at all because of the shiny paper, but you can get the idea for now.

This is a picture of the baby's profile. There's a hand up by his mouth...maybe sucking his thumb?

And I like this one...cute split-screen shot of the two feet.

Once I get back from the trip, I'll see about trying to scan these photos and more so you can get a better view. Off to pack now!
