Ultrasound (First & Second) Pictures

Here we are on the final days of our summer vacation. Rested, rejuvenated, bitter about it's ending and I have finally found the time to actually post the pictures of our ultrasound(s).

For the ultrasound picture impaired (that means anyone who has never had a child) you will be unable to tell much of anything from these pictures. Even though the second and third pictures are very clearly pictures of a baby, you won't see it. Don't feel bad. You're not alone.

This first picture is from our first ultrasound. As you can see, this happened way back in April. If you have trouble telling what the image is, imagine the baby is looking at you from a horizontal position and waving as if to say, I'm coming and the feeling of impending financial stresses are coming with me!!!!!

This picture is from ultrasound number two, just a little while back on June 25th. The day we found out that God had blessed us with the coming birth of our first daughter. This is again, the baby's face looking straight at you.

Our final selection is a profile picture of the baby at the second ultrasound. It's a real nice, clear picture that says to me, "I'm going to wrap you around my little, itty, bitty finger for the rest of your natural life Daddy." (I just smile and nod)

Beth - Yes, we're very excited to be having a girl. And to the shame of my masculinity, I get really touched when I go through the baby clothes. It's wussy, but its apparently who I am...a wuss.

Ben - Thanks. We're as excited as a Chicago fan that dreams that his Cubbies have won the '08 World Series.

Laurie - We were thinking of Britney, Lindsey, Tila, Tara, Miley, J-Lo, Madonna, or Uniqua. Of course I'm kidding. We're leaning toward Isabella Elisabet. But nothing is final until it's inked on the birth certificate.
