Oh my goodness!!

Today was such an amazing day!! We had our appointment at UC Baby at 5:00 pm. It was so, so, so awesome!! I can't even describe it! The baby was not cooperating at first, but after some time it woke up and started performing!! In the beginning it had it's hands and feet in front of its face! Apparently it likes being scrunched up in a ball!! It was literally "kicking" itself in the head and then at one point it was sucking on its big toe!! It also stuck its hand in its mouth, stuck out its tongue (ultrasound tech said it was probably swallowing amniotic fluid) and had a lot of fun playing with its umbilical cord!! We saw a few yawns, as well as a few smiles and a lot of frowns!! It was so cute! The ultrasound tech. commented on its beautiful round cheeks and full lips!! And also how expressive it was! It was so funny because it would frown and smile and raise its eyebrows and rest its chin on its hand with its other hand on its forehead!! The ultrasound tech thought the baby was saying, "No more paparazzi please!" The first thing I noticed was that it had Cal's nose and the ultrasound tech. totally agreed!!! She said it really looks like Dad! And I really thought it did too!! Cal had very round cheeks when he was born. The lady said the baby looks to be right on track with 27.5 weeks and that she predicts it will be 7.5 to 8 pounds when it is born! I thought from the beginning that it would be around 8 pounds, so we'll see!! We have a CD of all of the pictures (40 some) and a 45 minute DVD of the whole session (baby moving around and everything!)!! My sister is going to post the DVD when I give it to her. I could go on and on!!! I totally recommend the experience for anyone pregnant!!! Take care and we'll talk to you soon!

Love Cal, Tracy and Baby
XOXO

OMG Your baby is soooooo beautiful! What an awesome keepsake for you to have. Are you going to save your blog posts as well - what a wonderful way to keep track of your journey! I am so happy for you! Keep up the good work! P.S. Gibby can't wait to meet his new little buddy/girlfriend, but he is a Bears fan so there might be a litle rivalry there!
