She was so unbelievably cute! Even at 4 months, 16 weeks, it was so reassuring and so wonderful to see 10 cute fingers and 10 cute toes. I couldn't believe how well you could see her spine, her heart, and even her brain in the ultrasound. It is so interesting and totally incredible that we GROW these babies inside us. I mean, what an absolute miracle. Science can teach us exactly how it works and it can increase our appreciation in the exactness and perfection of the process, but still, when I saw that cute little sweetheart waving her little fingers for us, it really was so inspiring and beautiful in a way that only the divine can help us understand.
How precious a blessing we have.
I have two pictures that I scanned, but for some reason the resolution doesn't do them justice. Maybe next time it will work a little better. We also got a 10 min. dvd of our ultrasound! I love that I can watch my little girl jump around over and over again! It was soooo worth the money to find out early.
Congrats to those that thought it was a girl!! Although the voting both on the blog and outside made it come out to almost 50/50, it was exciting to see what everyone thought! Thanks for being so supportive!
And for those who are interested in knowing, we will be naming this cute little sweetheart
Isla
