meet our girl :)

So the appt. went great! Ultra sound lady and Dr. said that everything couldn't be going better. Baby measured good at 17 weeks and 5 days, so right about on target. We had two kidneys, a stomach, spine, two arms and hands, two legs and feet, healthy placenta, strong heartbeat and a VERY active, wiggly girl :)

I think she knows i'm talking about her because I can feel her right now! (sidebar: erik got to feel her move for the first time last night!).

As for me... Blood pressure, Check! Urine, Check! Temperature, Check! Weight gain, Check! +2 lbs from appt last month (which I swear, appeared on the scale YESTERDAY), +8 lbs total.

The first picture is a good shot of her spine with her leg on the left and her head pointing down on the right.
Shot below is her looking at us head on

Now she's looking to the back, i think.
Look at that skinny leg and foot, guess she takes after her dad already!
And here are her parts ;) oh won't she look back and be sooo embarassed.. gosh mom! haha the sonagram lady circled them with a pen and I'm glad because its a little fuzzy. but if you see the three lines... in the circle.. well, that's our girl!


I also got the exciting call this afternoon that the first part of our furniture order is in!!!! AHH i can't stand it, I want to go right now, but we will probably wait until the other dresser comes in.... MAYBE, if i can practice some patience!
