3D Ultrasound - Attempt #2

To encourage better results for this Ultrasound, I was instructed to do the following exactly 45 minutes before our appointment:

• Eat waffles with lots of syrup
• Drink orange juice
• Drink lots of ice-cold water

All of those things are supposed to help the baby be more active. However, our experience today reminded me of a saying that I've heard. Plans make God laugh. I guess the reason I thought about that was because even though I did everything that was suggested, we ended out waiting over an hour before we were even seen - rendering all the things I had done in preparation, useless! We were not too happy about this and neither was the Ultrasound tech. Apparently, there are only two rooms equipped with the machine she needed and my doctor's staff had put other ladies into those very rooms, so we had to wait for them to be seen first. Uggggh! It was very frustrating.

Luckily though, compared to our last visit, we got a couple of pretty good images of Samuel. We received several other pictures, but out of all of them, these were the best. The other ones may need more explanation as to what is what.

Here is the best one; I love his little nose!

Here is the other one. He moved his hand for a split second revealing both of his closed eyes and his nose. But there is that hand in the way again...covering his mouth this time!

We can definitely conclude that Samuel likes to sleep with his hands curled up near his face (just like mommy) and that he is stubborn (just like daddy) since he wouldn't move those hands for us to get a view of his entire face.

Brandon and I can't WAIT to finally meet him! I'm going to kiss every inch of that little face once I finally get to see it.
