hello world

Yesterday we had a follow-up ultrasound because our little buddy was not cooperating properly the first time around, and the dr didn't get a shot of everything she wanted.  So, this time I loaded up on sugar hoping he would be a little more active - but he wasn't.  I think he just gets comfortable in one spot and that is where he likes to stay.  The tech had me turning from side-to-side and kept reclining the chair so far back that my feet were almost over my head (I had to hold on for dear life) and every time I moved - baby would move right along with me.  Lets just say he is a stubborn little guy and just wants everything his way - lets hope this is not a sign of things to come.

After almost an hour of adjusting and the tech digging the wand into my ribs, she gave up and left to get the dr.  So I climbed out of my chair and started doing jumping-jacks or anything to get our buddy to move.  It was a success, and he moved just enough that the dr was able to get a shot he was happy with.  The dr then zoomed in and baby boy gave us a thumbs up letting us know that we were good to go!! 

We haven't been very good about keeping the family updated, so we thought we would add a few profile pictures of baby boy waving to everyone.
