A review of anatomy

Baby Ferg passed the anatomy test with flying colors today.  All the parts were there in all the right places.  He/she wiggled and shifted and rolled around almost the whole time, so the tech lady had a hard time getting all the pictures she needed.  I distinctly remember her referring to Baby Ferg as a 'little stinker' numerous times.  All that rolling made for a great first dvd, though.  I've been unable to upload the whole thing, so I tried to get the best screen shots to post here. 

Little Ferg feet (and a tiny bum)



You can see two of the four heart chambers.
What a cute little face!

Mid roll


Yummy fingers



Little ear
Tiny bones


We were both so amazed at the details we saw on the ultrasound.  It was so fun to get to know Baby Ferg a little bit more.  We're even more excited for him/her to get here!

Loot!

Baby Ferg, despite not being there, really raked in the goods at Christmas this year.
Steeler booties from Aunt Katie (much to the chagrin of Grandpa)

Big Cooper and Mini Cooper

Cooper, with gifts from Dave & Kari and Brooke & Tim.

We're already doing the mental calculations to figure out where everything's going to fit.  I suppose Cooper could hang out in this till Baby Ferg gets here.

Very cute Peter Rabbit plates from Aunt Katie

I also got some maternity clothes which I'm excited to wear.  Belly isn't quite big enough yet, though.  My next appointment and sonogram(!!) is Thursday.  Tim and I are excited to see how much Baby Ferg has grown.  I think-think-that I've been feeling him/her move in the past few days.  I'm not surprised, even though the doctor says it's on the early side, because the nurse always has a hard time finding the heartbeat at my appointments since he/she wiggles around so much.  I'm 19 weeks along today-almost halfway already.  I'm not trying to rush it, that's for sure.
A few random notes: I can eat pizza again, thanks to Zantac.  Spaghetti is still out, unfortunately.  Lemonade is my new love.  I've narrowed down the nursery decor and that's next on our to-do list.
I'll have a new picture to share on my next update and my parents will have a new computer wallpaper.
