Today was a really really exciting today! Dan and I had been waiting till August 20th for quite some time... in fact, I havent slept in a week because I've been so anxious about it! Finally we saw our baby wiggle its fingers and toes, shake its huge Haller head and hear the thumping in all four heart chambers! We saw the spine, the stomach, a pair of kidneys, a healthy flow of blood from the umbilical cord and giggled as Baby Haller squirmed when I laughed. I cannot believe I hold a 9 oz., 6.5 inch baby in my abdomen!! He/She looks super healthy and has all working parts including a moving jaw that we saw chomping away!
Below is Baby Haller squished in my cantaloupe-sized uterus. Super cute!
We were privileged to have my mom and Zachary visit us for the ultrasound and it was amazing to see and hear their reactions. Zach noticed most obvious body parts and asked lots of questions while sitting on Uncle Dan's lap. My mom was thrilled to be able to see such vivid photos and experience her third grandbaby in this way! 19 weeks a thriving! Zach said the funniest things today including watching the baby on the screen he said, "I was on this show when I was a baby."
Dan is such a proud daddy already, taking care of me and taking care of the baby by feeding me and letting me sleep in. I am unbelievably blessed to be married to him and seeing his reaction to his baby on the screen squirming and thriving was priceless and unforgettable. Thanks for all of your encouragement and prayer as we've taken this journey... Exciting step stones to come!

I like the little feet picture too!! So cute! Zachary really enjoyed the "show" with Aunt Jen's baby. Also, I've been looking at those pics & really trying hard to see if there's a way for me to find a little hint that might indicate gender. Dang!
