Pictures

Ok, so I am going to make an effort here, but it turns out I can tell a lot less about these pictures without the nice ultrasound technician pointing to what's what! The important part is, she said he is healthy and developing as he should!

This first picture is a profile of his face and chest. You can see his little hand up under his chin. She had a hard time getting him to stay still enough so she could get good pictures! I guess we can blame that on all the sweet tea I had for lunch (my attempt to get him to move around... guess it worked)!


This second one is kind of a front shot of his whole body. Right now he is about 6 inches long and weighs 9 oz. TINY!

This last one was an attempt at a 3d picture. She said that because he is so little and does not weigh much (1/2 a lb) that it pretty much looks like a skeleton. In a few weeks we should be able to see a lot more! This shows you his head... you can kind of see his eye sockets and nose... the the circle to the right of his head is his tummy.
I am continually amazed at how much technology can do! To think this little guy is still only 1/2 way done growing before being born!
Keep saying prayers that he stays healthy! Be back with more as news develops!

  2. YAY!! Yesterday after you called I talked to our secretary who said she would've thought it was my baby since I was so ridiculously excited! I told her that he's the closet thing I will have to a nephew ANY TIME SOON!!

    Please check your calendar & let me know about a time frame for the shower Mama & I want to give you...we were thinking late July or early August, any day b/c I can definitely take off a day for you!

    LOVE!!

  3. Girl I am so excited, you would think I was the one pregnant!! I love the pictures. I almost cried. I never got this emotional until having one of my own. I am telling you this little guy will change your life so much, you will not believe. My only advice is to enjoy every min. of the wonderful gift and blessing God has given you. There will be SOME frustrating times... but it is so worth it and the Good time totally out number the hard times. You, scott and little boy Griffin are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. Keep posting Pictures! I love them. They are beautiful. Congratulations a million times! Love you all!
