20 Week Ultrasound

Today we went for the 20 week ultrasound.
Peanut is starting to look like a baby now and the images they got were amazing! They said everything is developing normally and all of the major organs look good. They took a picture or every organ, bone, and body part and we got to see everything as they were doing this. How they were able to get close-up shots of everything is unbelievable. The baby was measuring a bit larger than normal so the doctors said they wouldn't be surprised if we had a big baby (but with Ry as the dad, I'm not surprised by this fact at all!). We had so much fun checking out our baby!


To the disappointment of many, we opted not to find out what we are having. We want it to be a surprise. After all, how many real happy surprises do you get in life? And even if we had wanted to know, the baby was laying on it's side the entire time and wouldn't wake-up and move at all. Based on this fact alone, Ry is claiming it's a girl because I am always sleeping in late so it must be taking after me! We'll be finding out soon enough whether he's right or wrong. We are so excited to be sharing this experience together and can't wait to meet our little on come January!
