The peanut is definetly a peanut....

It's been a while since I have updated all you all on our little peanut. (If you have missed anything you can check out my pregnancy blog...which may be a little boring to some of you...about what has been going on throughout the pregnancy). But I thought today would be a good day to share some info on him.


We had an ultrasound done this morning because I have been measuring a month behind than what I really am. (as in, Wednesday I measured 24 weeks, when I am really very close to 28 weeks along) and it has been like that the past couple of appointments. So, my doctor said she would do an ultrasound to see how this little man is progressing. Which, of course, was fine by us because even if he was totally fine, who wouldn't want to see that sweet little face again???


Well, turns out he is totally great! Everything about him measured right on for 28 weeks and they said he weighs about 2lbs 10oz! Which is hard to believe there is almost a 3lb baby all curled up inside there. We also got some more video of him...and he put on quite a show for us by getting the hiccups (which he gets quite often I might add) so we could see his sweet little belly go in and out, in and out. Everything else looked good too....good amount of amniotic fluid and the placenta looked fine. He is just apparently a little peanut....
We were hoping after we saw his face a little more clearly today on the ultrasound that we could finally narrow down a name for him. But....the little stinker wouldn't show us a good view of his face in 3D. So for now....we are still undecided. But have narrowed it down to two. Aren't you all dying to know what they are?? heehee..... We'll let ya know soon.
Anyway. Here are some new pics of our little man (which of course you know Brandon had have the tech double and triple check to make sure he is in fact our little "man")....ENJOY! We sure
have!
His little foot. And bonus, looks like he didn't get my feet!! Which trust me, no one wants. My whole mom's side has the ugliest feet you probably have ever seen. Brandon calls them my "finger toes" and well...I'll just leave it at that description.... and yep. Luke got them too. But so far so good for peanut!

And then a couple of shots of his profile. We didn't get any of his profile at his 20 week scan because he was moving like crazy in there. So I am loving these.....

T-8-11 weeks till we meet this little man!!!! oh my gosh I'm getting so excited I can barely take it. You all are going to have to fight me and Brandon (and probably Luke too) to hold him because we are NEVER putting him down this time around! Just kidding.....But seriously......no, I'm kidding. I guess I will share him because I will still want to hold my first baby too.....
