4D ultrasound pictures

We had our 4D ultrasound Friday. It was such a blessing to have both of my Grandmothers present as well as both sets of parents. The only person missing was Matthew's 91 year old grandmother. The baby is a bit small, compared to the 4D ultrasounds done around 30 weeks, but I don't mind. My grandmother from Ohio was in town and we just had to take the opportunity. Besides, this is about the time we had Luke's done and his were beautiful as well!

Baby kept wiggling into my placenta, so it was hard to get a really good face shot, but I love seeing the little faces and the little fingers and toes.

Christmas at the Zoo

We went to Christmas at the Zoo this weekend and had a great time. Luke's all time favorite exhibit is the Oceans house because he can get right up to the glass, look at the fish and try to pet the sharks.

Of course, he enjoyed some of the other animals, such at the "cats" (tigers), the "moos" (cows), and the animals that went "woof woof" (bears). He also enjoyed the dolphin show, exclaiming "ohhhhh" when they would jump out the water.

You can't, however, enjoy Christmas at the Zoo without taking in those wonderful seasonal festivities, such as stomping on all the leaves and having Daddy push you extra fast through the lighted trees to which the appropriate response is "weeeeeee!"

We are preparing for a wonderful Christmas and hope that the actives you and your family participate in bring warm memories for years to come!

Healthy Baby Graham

We had our 20 week ultrasound yesterday! I am pleased to report a healthy baby and healthy mommy! Our baby is now 12 oz. and very active. I feel little kicks and rolls all the time.

Please note the baby's hand by it's head.

Just a cute little hand shot because it's a cute little baby!

And this is the position the baby preferred to be in. We all had a good laugh because it seems like such an awkward position to be in.

Planned C-section birth plan

Hello Bloggy world,

If you had a planned c-section birth plan, I would love to see it. I keep looking on the Internet and I've found a few, but not to many of them. I'm almost 20 weeks, and am starting to feel the urge to "prepare." I would appreciate any help.

thanks!

Belly update

A fun picture at 19 weeks. We go in next week for our big ultrasound, even though, I already know who this is. Luke continues to be fascinated by my belly, but I think it might be the stage he is in. If I don't put a onesie on him, he lifts his shirt all day long to stare at his belly button. It is really cute until he starts doing it to strangers. Gets a little bit awkward at that point, but who cares. He's cute and 14 months old.
