Ultrasound

Well, we had another ultrasound today and everything looks great! My doctor just wanted to check Jack's heart one more time since we have down syndrome in the family. Luckily, he shows no signs of that and he is as healthy as can be.

Jack was very active the whole time- doing flips, sucking his thumb, and moving his mouth (maybe he was swallowing or hiccuping?) But the real news is that Jack is weighing in at 2 lbs. 13 oz. which, along with his other measurements, means that he is due to arrive about a week earlier than we thought (February 9 instead of the 16th) and even then should weigh 8 1/2- 9 lbs if he continues along as he has been. The doctor may even want to induce me earlier than that so that he won't be so big. We are really excited but also a little nervous to think we may meet our little guy in only 10 short weeks!

Here are the pictures from today... We now have photographic evidence that Jack is in fact a boy!
