Our Little One.

Well, now that I am done playing with videos, here are some pictures that some of you might find interesting. These are the three pictures we were given after our ultrasound a few weeks ago. But, before the pics, here is some thoughts on the ultrasound.

Well, going to an ultrasound and actually finding a baby this time was quite a joy. Even though God had given us many positive signs to keep us hopefull up to this point, we were still worried. (for those of you who can't remember, this was the same point in our last pregnancy when they told us there was no baby...) So, to see something on the screen was such a blessing. Well, needless to say, God didn't stop there. He allowed us to watch our little one wiggle, move, and even flip over while the technician was measuring everything. It was so cool to watch something be alive inside Jenn, and to know that God was in the process of forming a new life. I will be processing that stuff for a long time to come!

So, once the ultrasound was done, we asked the lady if everything looked normal. Thankfully, she said everything was good, and the only thing she noticed was that the baby was big. (no surprise there). But then she told us it was in the 90th percentile, and I think Jenn almost started to cry! I guess our little one is not going to be so little for long. And I guess that also means that it is strong and healthy.

On a final note, most of you are probably wondering wether or not we found out the sex of the baby. Well, the answer is yes, but we aren't telling! We want it to be a surprise, so everyone will just have to wait and see. (I know, cruel ain't it?).

Well, here are the pics. Cute isn't she/he?


This picture is of the baby's head. You can see its hands and face too.



This picture is of the baby's spine. You can see all the little bones...



This picture is the hardest to make out. It is of the baby's feet. You can see them in the black bubble in the middle.

Some new content!

Hey Eveyone. For those of you who have been watching our blog over the last week or so, you will know that I have been conducting tests to get videos into our blog. Well, now the tests are complete, and I have some videos from our trip to Georgia. For the guys out there, I have the quading clips, and for the ladies (or more femenine guys) I have the ballet clips. Props to videoegg.com for hosting these things for me. They are free and so far have not limited the number of clips I can have. Hopefully I am going to post more videos in the future, so keep an eye our for some Cypress Hills footage, and some new baby room shots!


This video was taken during our first major quading obstacle. Fun!




This video was taken when we arrived at a lake we found deep in the woods. It took us a good couple hours to get there, but wow, was it worth it. By the way, while us guys were eating in the wilderness, the girls were haveing some fancy Italian cuisine!




This was the last quading trip. Dad and I went way back into the mountains and were following an old farming and loggin trail. Needless to say, the view was breathtaking!




These are some of the ballet shots taken while we were attending the Nutcracker in Georgia. They are pretty self explanitory, so enjoy.
