New Pictures!

We had our ultrasound Friday afternoon! It was wonderful! The heartbeat is still strong. Every measurement the technician took was within the normal range. All 10 fingers and 10 toes were accounted for, as far as the bean would let us see. It was very active the whole 20+ minutes. The technician kept telling it to hold still for just a second so she could get a better measurement, or a better picture. It never held still. It had the hiccups the whole time, but I still can't feel those. As you can see in a couple pictures the bean's hands were up in front of it's face. The bean was also kicking it's legs out straight right above it's head.













The bean is kicking away every day. I feel it throughout the day but it's not kicking quite hard enough for Daddy Brad to feel. :( I love feeling those little kick, punches and flips.

According to measurements from the ultrasound my due date should be around May 31st. I'm liking this because I thought I was due May 29th where the doctor thinks it's May 22nd. Looks like I'm closer! Either way, it will be at the end of May as long as the bean follows the rules. :)

The Bump

This is a quick post but here ya go!

I've been feeling the bean kick for a while now. I'm pretty sure the bean kicked on the drive to North Dakota the week before Christmas. I know for sure I felt 3 good solid kicks on Christmas Eve. This weekend the bean was quite active but as soon as I told Brad to feel the bean went to sleep. So Daddy hasn't been able to feel anything yet.

These pictures are 22 weeks. Our ultrasound is this Friday so we'll have new pictures to post then! No still not finding out the sex :)
