Ultrasound

Baby Peterson (sex still unknown... lol)

I absolutely loved this picture. Baby suddenly opened his/her mouth and it looked just like baby was laughing. The ultrasound Dr. seemed to find it amusing too as he replayed this image mulitple times! (Baby is lying down with the head on the left and the big belly on the right.)

The Dr. wanted to make sure we had a serious pose of baby at his/her 1/2 point (20 weeks). It is truly amazing just how real baby looks and acts (sucking his/her thumb, curling up in a ball, all the little bones and stomach, and of course kicking momma- aka me!)

Baby's growth

So, at the request of Mom (Cynthia), we're posting the progression of Xica's tummy up to this point, as our baby grows inside her.

This is about 4 months.

3 Months

2 Months

First Month

Can you tell we got a better camera after month 1? We decided we better have a good camera to capture all our baby's experiences.
