Ultrasound @ 20 weeks

We had our 20 week ultrasound on September 4th. Unlike our first ultrasound experience @ 12 weeks (with "mean Donna"), this time around it was actually pretty fun (with "nice Stephanie")! It was a full anatomy ultrasound where they measured all the body parts and made sure everything was in the right place. We are happy to note that everything looks great. We were very worried that the sonographer would slip and reveal the sex of the baby, but she had us look away anytime she got close to that "region". We're happy to say that we are still going to be surprised come January 22nd.

The baby was really squirmy and at one point, looked like he/she was marching in place...it was really cute. Speaking of marching, Jamie's prediction is that we're having a little Chester or Chester-ina. You can decide for yourself.

Although it was very interesting to see the baby in 3D, we do realize that he or she resembles a creature or alien. I think only parents can have a true appreciation for these pictures. Proceed with caution.
