Peek-a-boo

We got a sneak peak of infant-to-be on Friday :) The ultrasound was truly amazing. You can see so much with this technology these days! Our tech found and measured the head, abdomen, spine, long bones in the arms and legs, kidneys, bladder, stomach, and the heart with all 4 chambers. Everything was measuring right on - its heart was beating 156 bpm and babe is weighing in at about 367 grams (about 13 oz). We had to wait a few minutes for the baby to flip so we could take a look at its face, but it was very cooperative and gave us these great profile shots:
It's looking so much like a full size infant, that we can hardly wait to hold him/her (yep, we kept the gender a surprise) in our arms. Here we are on Halloween - the proud parents-to-be :)

precious....just precious!! and cooperative! baby #4 refused to give us a good profile shot...yet another stubborn scheper baby ;) being surprised is well worth the wait! ella is seriously dissapointed that i won't find out though...she keeps asking me to go find out (she refuses to discuss this baby being yet another brother)

Yep, hopefully the cooperativeness will continue once the baby is out :) He he - I bet Ella would have so much fun with a baby sister!
