So isn't he PRECIOUS?! Okay, let me explain the pictures so you can tell :) First of all, these pictures came from our big ultrasound that we had on Tuesday at the hospital with an ultrasound tech. She checked EVERYTHING out and said that the baby is growing just as he should. In fact, he's already a pound! And that makes me a little nervous...he's still got 18 weeks to gestate. I just feel like he's gonna be a big boy! And THAT makes me even more nervous about the labor. Oh well, I guess I'd rather endure a little more pain for a healthy baby than a puny one :)
The first one is of him making a fist with his numb up...kinda like a gun, but not scary...more on the cute side. My boss (who went to Texas Tech) said he's already making the "shoot 'em up red raiders" hand gesture!
Okay, back to the pics! The first one is a profile picture. I just love the little nose!
The next one is a full on face shot. His forhead is to the right and chin to the left. You can see his little ear popping out of his head at the top and his little hand covering his mouth. And don't worry if you can't see all this...I had to study this picture to figure out what in the heck it was...and I was there while the tech was explaining what was going on in each picture!

Here's some belly pics as well...21 weeks and growing!
In other exciting news, I'm really feeling the baby moving quite a bit now. It is so awesome!!! It really started about a week ago and I was just so happy to feel the movement. This pregnancy keeps on getting more and more real. And it's getting Bryan and I more and more excited to meet our little man!
We've started talking about names and have some great ideas, but nothing for sure yet. And we've decided to keep our final selection a secret though until he actually comes. That way we don't get all the opinions and it's kinda fun to have at least one surprise for everyone!
We also started looking at day cares :( I'm not at all excited about the thought of taking him to one, but I must go back to work. We were so pumped about the Univ. of Texas Child Development Center (Bryan works for UT Houston so we would get a discount) that's a mile away from our house but when I called a few weeks ago I was told they have a waiting list until Summer of 2010!!! So disappointing. Then we looked at the YMCA in the medical center and were comfortable with that option. And they have an opening! So we definetly could put Baby D there but are going to check out at least a couple more. I'm just praying that God makes this decision very clear for us because we definetly want to choose the right spot.
Well, I think that's it for today. I'll try to update more frequently!
