Busy Week!

On Tuesday, we went to the Maternal Fetal Department at RMH for our Nuchal Transleucency Ultrasound. Baby was very co-opeartive in the beginning and the ultrasound tech was able to get the measurements she needed right away. So then she started to show us other pics of Baby. She took a couple in 'normal' 2D and gave us those, one picture shows baby relaxing with his/her legs crossed at the ankles. Then she changed the sensor on the ultrasound machine and we got to see Baby in 3D and 4D! We didn't get any pictures in 4D, she said that is best for watching Baby move, but this is when Baby choose not to cooperate and didn't move. She was able to get lots of pictures of Baby in 3D, though! It was pretty amazing! At one point, baby looked right at us, opened his/her mouth and proceeded to stick his/her tongue out at us!!! We got to see and hear the heartbeat again, it was 157.

12 weeks 6 days

Friday was our routine OB appointment. Everything was great. No ultrasound, but he did use the doppler so we got to hear Baby's heartbeat, again, it was in the 150's.

Ron has been hard at work in his flower gardens moving and planting. We finally got the trellis I bought him last year put together and he moved it out there this week. It looks great. He moved some Clematis so that it climbs up the sides of it. His gardens are looking great. I'll take some pics on a nice sunny day next week and post them.

I cannot wait to meet "BABY OLSEN"! I am so excited about this upcoming fall...a true beginning of a new life for many, many people. Families are so important. Many of our children will be truly understanding for the first time just how we (the grandparents to be) have been feeling ever day since the birth day of our children...truly an emotion you cannot comprehend until you hold that "Gift from God" in your arms for the first time! So if you think you love that 3D picture now, just wait! I became a grandmother yesterday for the 2nd time...I'm really lucky...I get to do that again 3 more times between September and November and I can't wait!
