sarah's Arty Dreams

Yesterday Rachael had another sonogram. Syair is doing great and growing so fast...I can't wait for February when I can kiss his little fat face! Stephen was there and had to pick me up because of time conflict. We met Rachael and her dad and sisters at the Dr.'s office and I was able to go back to see the sonogram in process.

The tech had already checked the sex of the baby again, it's still a male. And was on to measuring his body and face. I saw his round little belly and head. His legs were folded upward towards his arms and his arms were beside his face. Syair's heartbeat was still strong and normal.

He pressed his feet against the side of the uterus and we were able to see his *huge* feet and toes! Wow, this kid is going to be tall I think! (Like his daddy and momma) Stephen, by the way, is 6'4'' I THINK. Don't quote me on that...

They said he weighed about 1.8 lbs and 25 weeks gestation...he is coming along so perfectly. When I saw his face, I thought of Rachael right away. I saw her in him and that really brought it home for me....in terms of recognizing what is in her belly. Complicated stuff! Also, I forgot to mention, he opened his mouth during the session, it was so cute but looked mechanical, because it's only 2d. Still adorable, though.

So anyway, he's pretty much awesome and I can't wait to meet him. Rachael said he has my chin, we'll see.
