Today our little one took our breath away at our 13week, 2day ultrasound - we spent about 45 minutes oohing and ahhing at his or her sweet little features at the appointment while the ultrasonographer measured the important stuff! We even got to see our baby's stomach, bladder, heart chambers, brain, and little fingers. It was neat to seem him or her swallowing- it looked like a little hiccup! Baby is measuring perfectly and his or her heartrate is about 155 beats per minute- Josh was just amazed when they turned the volume on to listen to the hearbeat!
Baby must have had a hard day earlier when mommy was at work with her patients, as he or she was sound asleep during most of the ultrasound until the lady started poking and prodding- at first I was concerned he or she wasn't moving but the ultrasonographer said "he's just nappin'!"- Josh was excited about the "he" reference- we won't find out the gender until December 3rd, but he seems to think it's a boy :)- time will tell!

long legs like Papa Gropp!

Sweet little fingers, and elbow- my favorite picture
