My baby is BEAUTIFUL!


We saw her! Okay, i don't really know it's a her, but I think so, so in this post "it" will be "her" :-) I am over half-way through my pregnancy now, and we had the joy of watching our sweet little one on the ultrasound machine last week. I LOVED it! I could have laid there for hours, mesmerized by watching my baby's every movement. My baby. Still seems so surreal!

She seems to be passive, at least so far. She was content to just lay there and slowly move and stretch those little arms and sweet little hands and fingers. I must be falling in love. I want to watch our ultrasound video over and over, and cry every time I see those sweet fingers - oh to kiss them!!!! As my mother used to say "my lips were quivering", I just wanted to kiss those hands! And then we watched the most amazing thing - she took that tiny hand with tiny fingers, slooowly moved them up to her mouth, got them in, and then started sucking away. It looks to be her two middle fingers - the same ones my niece and nephew both sucked. Amazing.

Beyond just getting to watch her, it was wonderful to get a clean bill of health and see that SO FAR our child seems to be perfect and right on track. I already am counting down until our next ultrasound!!! I love her.
