3d Ultrasound

I received the best early birthday present yesterday (almost a month early, but hey who cares)!! Roger & I went to www.windowinthewomb.com and had a 3d/4d ultrasound done of Amelia. We wanted the reassurance that she really was a girl and to see how she is developing.

She's beautiful! There are a lot of 3d pictures that I look at and say, I can't tell anything about that baby, but I can look at these pictures and see what she is going to look like. I can see her smile and her nose and her little rolls of fat on her arms... it's amazing!

She is definitely girl!!! The ultrasound tech was able to point out specific parts of the female anatomy that you almost don't want to think about your daughter having... but I now feel much better about all the pink we've bought her.

It also looks like she has the Fort long legs... so I guess I better get use to the idea of my daughter being taller than me.

For me this was more than just pictures and a dvd, this was a bonding experience. I feel SO much closer to her now that I've seen her smile and I can't wait to meet her in 3 months!

The photos are even better when they are larger so here is a link to my flickr account. If you hit "slide show" you can really enjoy the details that the 3d images produce.
