Wiggles and Giggles

This week we hit the 22 mark! Only 18 more to go. Crazy. I had a doctor's appointment Tuesday and baby boy is measuring just as he should and still has a nice strong heartbeat. They asked about movement and when I told them I wasn't sure but described what I thought might be him they said it was. Turns out I've been feeling the little bugger move for probably about a month now. It is becoming more frequent now and now that I know its him it is so much cooler! The other night Andy even got to feel him move! I'd say he was pretty excited! He's such a proud dad already!

Last week I went and had a 4D ultrasound done and Andy and I sat down and watched the video Sunday night. Being able to see him like that really made me eager to meet him and be able to hold him. Andy had a blast laughing at him as he was dancing and jumping around. Though he was hesitant (because it is slightly creepy) I think he really did enjoy it. I still haven't gotten Andy to take a belly picture but he is definitely growing. So for now here are some pics from the little guys ultrasound to admire:
Face:
Here he is playing with the chord. The tech said he is pushing it away when it touches his face which is a great sign that his brain is working very well.
 Leg:
 Hand by face:
 Foot:
 Nothing to exciting has been happening otherwise. We've been getting his room set up and other than that working. Andy has still been getting home earlier which has been so nice! He's even had time to run Allie Bear when he gets home which they both really enjoy. There's nothing Allie likes more (except maybe riding in the car) and I know it makes Andy feel good to be able to get out and do something active. I'm looking forward to fall so that hopefully I will be more willing to do things outside during the week. Now I'm just done when I get home from work...

We're headed to Asheboro to see my mom this weekend. Maybe we'll have pictures of something we can post next week.

PS - I'm impressed. Spell check didn't find one this wrong! Has to be a first :o)
