Hello there, wee one.
We had our 20 week ultrasound today. Here are a couple pictures:
Here we see Flipper in quite the pensive state, hands clasped under his/her chin and resting on his/her giant belly.
And here’s a foot and some toes! (NOM NOM NOM)
He/she is measuring on schedule, has a “perfectly round” head, and is nice and average as far as size. The phrase “This is textbook” was used several times.
We don’t have any shots of the face as the wee one wasn’t cooperating. I go back on July 7 to get another ultrasound done so they can take a look at his/her kisser. I also have to get screened for a potential “issue,” the name of which I’m not telling you because you will Google it and start flipping out like I did. And no, it has nothing to do with the genetic screening we didn’t do. The odds are very low that there’s even a problem, and they just need to take another look to be sure. That’s probably all I’m going to say about it because I’ve already freaked out about it enough tonight.* Instead I will keep looking at the picture of the toes because, seriously, CUTE.
*But I will appreciate any good thoughts and prayers you want to send our way.

Val and Ross,
I’ve said a prayer for you guys and will ask my wife to do the same. You’re right when you say the toes are cute. Nothing much cuter than baby toes.
lots of healthy baby thoughts coming in your direction….
The prayers and thoughts, they have commenced.
In that first picture the baby is obviously contemplating it’s business plan for distributing crude oil in the far west…and drinking others milkshakes.
“We’ll strike a deal with Union oil and run a pipe line to the coast. This is what we do.”
Positive vibes flowing your way.
Lots of good vibes going to you guys - you’ve got yourself one cute little squiggle there!
Who can resist baby toes?!?
Those healthy baby thoughts will keep on coming…
praying…constantly!
Tim and I will be praying. We’re in tight with the Big Guy, too. While we’re at it, we’ll throw in an “UNDER CONTRACT” sign for good measure. EXCEEDINGLY GOOD MEASURE.
Thinking good thoughts for a good test.
What a cutie already!
Awwwww…. Baby stuff. Love it. I will keep you in my prayers too!
Cool little pics. My prayers are with you! I am sure all is well.
