It's a....BOY!!!!!!!!!!

Really, it's a girl! Just kidding, we didn't find out! We did, however, receive alot of other info on this visit. Seems Baby Mitchell is already "advanced" (as Dr. Anding put it) for his (remember, we call it "he" but don't really know the sex) age. He's about a week ahead of schedule as far as his size is concerned. Just another way of saying I'm going to have a big-ass baby! Good thing God blessed me with these big 'ol hips!

The baby weighs 6 ounces and his organs look great. We got to see his brain, spine, heart, and the blood flow through the umbilical cord. Unfortunately, he wasn't in a dancing mood this morning and would not stretch out for us to see him. He stayed balled up for most of the exam. When the tech initially examined me (they make Ben wait outside until all the technical stuff is done) the baby was totally asleep. I had to turn onto each side, touch my toes a couple of times, do a little coughing, and get up and use the restroom just to get him to un-ball himself. Finally, when Ben came in and started talking to him and touching my stomach, the baby starting stretching. Sweet, huh?

We got a few pictures, but they didn't turn out too great. Below is a 3-D image (it doesn't look as cool as it does from the commercials on tv) where the baby is facing the camera and has his left arm across his face trying to hide his eyes and a side view where you can see his head, spine, and knee.

We have a couple of short video clips from the ultrasound machine that we will load tomorrow. They're no where near as awesome as the last video, but you can see him wave his arms and his heart pumping away. Check back soon!
