19 week Ultrasound

I got an ultrasound done today, and it was really neat to see the baby! It always makes it a little more real when you can see the hands and feet and the cute little head.  One thing we got to learn about our little one though is that he/she likes privacy!  The baby kept it's arms around it's face and it's little legs closed the entire time, so we weren't able to find out the gender.
At first I was disappointed,  I was looking forward to telling the kids and to help prepare them more for what's coming. But, we didn't find out with Quincey and I remember how much fun it was to find out the old fashioned way, so I guess a few more months won't kill us.  Maybe I will have to go back for another ultrasound, and the baby will be be less private then.  
Quincey and Maiya were very fascinated by the Ultrasound.  And Quincey became really kind of giddy.  He had a hard time not smiling and giggling and telling us how much he loves us.  And when the tech put the heartbeat waves up on the screen, Quincey said, "And there is the babies sharp teeth!"  I love how sweet he is.  He has been taking care of me.  Asking if the baby needs some water, or if the baby needs to rest.
Here are the pictures! 


The baby kept waving at us!  Hi Mom! Hi Dad!
cute little arms.
Stop taking pictures! I am trying to sleep ;)

That's so fun. It will be cool if you find out the old fashion way. I'd like to do that eventually, but it would be nice to have both genders first before being surprised!

Well, Miss Victoria was extremely private also. With all the ultra sounds we had, she showed us notta! She also kept her little legs curled up tightly to reveil nothing. Aaron on the other hand spread eagle, as if to say: "Well, if you're gonna intrude, here, I'm all boy!" :)
Your little one looks darling already. Love the view of arms.
