Sonogram

We had our first sonogram today at 18 weeks 6 days. It was awesome!

We got to see all four chambers of the heart, a great view of the spine, a full baby bladder (not just my bladder), and the baby tried to talk to us! Really the baby was just opening and closing its mouth but I like to think "hi, mom and dad" came out!

Our diagnosis was "WNL" or within normal limits for those of us not in the medical field. The measurements show that the baby weighs 11 ounces which calculates at the 89th %ile. Looks like we're on our way to a big baby! The heartbeat has slowed down to 146 beats per minute so the old wives tales have been thrown for a loop!

Our other great news is that the baby's cousin Ava was born on April 16! On Saturday we drove down to AR to meet her. She is very sweet and seems to be treating her mom and dad well.
