This has been one of the best days of being pregnant so far. 20 weeks 5 days, due date still March 9th 2008! My in laws Helyse & Fred came up to visit and join myself, Gabe, my parents and sister to our 20 week ultrasound appointment. I first had to drink 16 oz. of water 2 hours before the appointment and was not able to use the restroom. PURE TORTURE for a pregnant women but I was strong and maybe only did the pee pee dance once or twice. The tech. doing the ultrasound was amazing. Very patient and informative. I even hugged him when we had finished. He really did make my day! The baby looked great, 4 limbs, full bladder and stomach. He or she even waved at us...of course this is when I started to cry. At one point the baby even opened and closed it's eyes and mouth. What a blessing life really is. We then had lunch at one of my very favorite restaurants Il Fornaio...ummmm so good! My parents had to get back to work so we parted ways with them and took off to Babies R Us. Can I just have one of each please! Too much fun. From there we where on our way to Starbucks! How many of my favorites can I have in one day? I think I had them all today! Hope everyone enjoys these pictures as much as we all did. My love to all.
This is where the baby waved at us! "Hi everyone, can't wait to meet you all!"
Baby's profile. I can't wait to kiss that little nose!
Baby's face, eyes and lips. You can even see it's ribs. This one kinda freaks me out!
Another profile.
Really counting down the weeks now. If all goes as planned (like they ever do) only 12 weeks and a few days left till we get to meet our first child! The little one is VERY active these days. Little kicks and punches are welcoming, I really do enjoy feeling them. Gabe has felt baby's kicks too as well as Papa while Grandma only got to see them. She thinks she has the calming touch since when she placed her hand on my belly the baby stopped moving. I think something different but won't go there...she will get upset with me!!!! HAHA love you mom!
