We had our big ultrasound today!!! We're having a...

baby!!! :)  You didn't really think I was going to spill the beans, did you?  We are waiting to find out this little one's gender, like we did with Ava.  It was such a fun surprise, and fun to see who can guess it right. :)

Vovô and Vovó, Ava, and Daddy were with me at the ultrasound.  We got to see little feet, little hands, little legs, a beautiful spine, perfect little head, beautiful little profile with a tiny nose, and just a perfect little miracle growing inside my belly.  It is amazing to see so many details and think that this little one is only about 6 inches long and about 9 oz.  The doctor told us that the baby was in the 30th percentile for size, which was no surprise to us, since Ava is only in about the 10th percentile for size. :)  We saw the baby's heartbeat, saw the baby hiccup (guess all my babies hiccup ;), Ava used to hiccup all the time inside my belly and out!), and just got to marvel in what a little blessing this little one already is.  Below are some of the pictures we got to take away with us.

An incredible spine (baby is facing down) - amazing to see such a perfectly detailed body, even though the baby is only about 6 inches long.

What a blessing to be able to see this little one right before Thanksgiving.  Just one more blessing to be thankful for this year.
