Baby's First Photo Shoot!


They're a little bit less, um, productive when you're asleep, little man! We were fortunate enough to be able to go to Fetal Photos with our "Baby Mama" tonight. She thought we might want some ultrasound pictures of the baby so she invited us to tag along. Scott was a little worried that he might be out of place in the room, but we quickly realized that this is not your typical doctor office scenario. The theater style seating was a dead giveaway! We had no idea that the technology could create such amazing photos! So he's 4.8 oz at 33 weeks, has long legs already, and is already head down. We got some great images of his profile, his little feet, his heart beating, his eyes, lips and nose...in spite of the fact that he was sound asleep and part of the placenta was covering one side of his face. We tried everything (except maybe some rap or AC/DC). The tech even jiggled him. To no avail. We were hoping that means he'll be a good sleeper but Baby Mama told us not to count on it! She said he's usually pretty active. The second meeting with her reinforced our first impressions - she's a beautiful, thoughtful, sweet young lady and we are very, very lucky people!
