Is baby hiding?

My dear Sprinkle,

It was such a gift to see you this morning.

Thank you for all of the kicking, stretching, & scooting that made it possible! You're a beautiful baby. At 35 weeks they say you are just over 5 pounds. It already seems clear that you have Daddy's chin & Mommy's nose just like your big brother & sister. We can't wait to meet you face to face!

Rebecca was sure we were going to meet today, but not yet. She thought it was funny that you were swimming & playing hide-and-seek with us. Andrew could recognize many of your little features. You are so loved! I'm going to try my best to appreciate every moment we get together even before you are born.

I love you so much! See you soon!
Love,
Mommy

Sprinkle's an eggplant

Well, we've almost hit 25 weeks. That means that Sprinkle is the size of an eggplant. ; ) We had another ultrasound today & all looks good. The baby weighs 1 lb. 10 oz., wow. That's so tiny to be so perfectly formed! We saw the arms, legs, brain, heart, kidneys, even eyelids. Incredible. Please, keep praying for a healthy baby & safe pregnancy. Sprinkle was in peek-a-boo mode so once again we didn't get any good facial shots. This one was our best. Sleeps snuggled just like Andrew. =] Third trimester, here we come!

It's a . . .

baby! (Gottcha) ; ]
Look at that, fingers already clasped together in prayer! Crazy little one was doing flips in my stomach all morning, then stopped as soon as we got there. This is the clearest face shot from right at the beginning since the rest of the time was a big peek-a-boo game. : )

A Mother's Day surprise...

My favorite gift of the day...
feeling the first flutters of our little Sprinkle!

Now that kid is on the ball! I can't wait to see him/her at the ultrasound on Tuesday. Pictures soon to follow!
