What a difference 6 weeks makes!

P.S... you can click on the pictures to make it larger!

Ok, for all of us that got to share in the experience of the 16 week ultrasound, I will now freely admit that I had (and still don't have) any idea what the sonographer was pointing out. Is that the face we asked?...No, that is the rear end she replied. Oh, I can see an arm...I think...or is that a...?

There was no question about any body parts today. I can not believe how incredible technology is that they can get this clear of a picture at 21 weeks. Right now, the baby is about 10 1/2 inches long and weighs about a pound. We were able to see everything, and because her skin is translucent right now, you can see all the bones, the heart, her eyes, and everything else. It was trully incredible.

Oh, and yes, she does have her fist in her nose in the second picture. Like father like daughter.

wow! those pics are so incredible! it is amazing what you can create in 10 mo. (yes, 10. not 9), isn't it? give that baby a rub and tell her to pick a winner.
