Baby Preview

On New Year’s day we saw our baby for the first time – even though it is still inside of Alyssa. We had a 3d/4d ultrasound done. The images were awesome and very clear. It was easy to bond with the baby compared with our first 2-d ultrasound which showed alien-like images compare to these pictures.

We also found out during this ultrasound that we are having a boy!

The technology allows you to see the baby moving around in real time. At the beginning he was sleeping and had his hands by his face. Then he became very active, moving his hands and feet around. He even had one of his feet up by his ear for a few minutes. I guess he gets his flexibility from Alyssa. Near the end of the session he curled back into the “fetal” position as shown in the last picture.

We are in awe of how God has made him. We are very thankful for this beautiful gift and look forward to meeting him around March 29th.
