So our ultrasound was on Friday, 18 and a half weeks along. The tech told me our little bean was moving around like crazy, she almost had to have me come back in, because she couldn't see the baby's spine well enough! However, as soon as she said that, the baby flipped and she was able to get the pics she needed.
Oh how our bean has grown! Our first ultrasound was at 13 weeks (i think) and then 5 weeks later, there's a little person in there! She showed us the kidneys, the beating little heart, our baby's face, the umbilical cord (which we thought may have been a little weiner... but didn't ask haha)
Rob made sure to tell the tech to check the baby's kidneys, he really is such a wonderful man - the look on his face when our baby was on the screen was something I'll never forget! He's so proud of himself!
In other news, we babysat Carleigh for the night to let Dave and Nikki get out for a little. She is such an angel! Poor little girl is probably starting to teeth, so she was a little cranky but we were fine :) I'll admit, I was terrified! I was tired yesterday, and I couldn't just take a nap - I had a little person to take care of, feed, entertain! But although I was tired, and anyone who knows me knows I like to get my uninterrupted sleep - we were fine all night! I changed her and fed her in the middle of the night - then rocked her and sang her back to sleep. What an amazing experience!
So, last but not least, here are some pics from the ultrasound!

This one is the whole baby from the back, you can see it's head, with it's arm up by it's face, and the body.
A beautiful little hand, with five clear fingers!
A little leg, or chicken wing LOL
Here's the little legs, and a bum - the baby's body is on the other side, you're looking directly at the bum!
And last, but not least.... our baby's profile! Looks like it's sucking it's thumb!
