I had a bit of a scare when I had a hard time feeling baby move! And just the day before little baby had been all sorts of active (enough so that Matt could feel a kick). No worries though, baby is definitely alive and well :)
AND . . . baby is a BOY! :) Surprise! :)

| Legs (about 6 inches long) and body (about 7 inches long). |

| Foot (with all 5 toes) and face (with no cleft lip) |
His growth is very good - legs are about 6 inches long and the rest of the body is about 7 inches (hmm... I wonder who his daddy is?). He is also estimated to weigh about 1 1/2 pounds. The ultrasound technician estimated a due date of September 28 (a whole week and a day ahead of the original due date), based on his growth and development.

| Baby at about 10 weeks vs. baby at about 22/23 weeks - he grows so fast! P.S. the bubbly stuff between his head and leg is the umbilical chord |
All vitals look "perfect" (to quote the technician) and our little baby boy is growing well! Oh, and his head is in the down position now, which explains the "less" active feeling I had earlier. He's still just as active now, he's just kicking up into my diaphragm instead of out by my belly button. He does slide his hands (or head?) across my inner tummy though - it feels like a snake crossing my belly on the inside. WEIRD! Anyway, we are super excited for this little one to come into our lives - whether it is September or October.
Yay!!!! Boys are completely awesome!!! Have you read our blog lately? You might want to. :)
