another good checkup
This morning we went in for another checkup & everything's looking great. Strong clear heartbeat, and the results from last month's ultrasound came in without a hitch.
The funny part is that according to this ultrasound, Baby C is due January 5 - the date that I had told Drew that I think the baby is going to come. In reality, this is so close to the original date that the due date won't officially change.
And, this afternoon I was able to get an extra ultrasound at Hope Pregnancy Center here in town. They needed "models" to give their technician practice, so I happily signed up. That's a great and much needed ministry in the area. The environment is welcoming and peaceful - just the kind of place I'd want to go if I was pregnant unintentionally!
I think I'll go look at Elijah's pictures some more... Isn't he so cute?!

Adam Elijah Grace is here!
I guess a good first step to being mom and dad is being aunt and uncle! Well, we officially are Uncle Drew and Aunt Jenny to Adam and Melissa's new boy, Adam Elijah. Elijah (as he is to be known) was born tuesday September 12th weighing in at 6lb10oz, and 18 3/4" long. He is healthy, and feeding and sleeping well. Here are a few pictures.

A note on the new ultrasound video
Especially for ultrasound technicians and other folks trained to read ultrasounds:
We really want to be surprised by our baby's gender at delivery. So if you know what we're having judging by the clip Drew provided, please kindly refrain from posting your expert opinion.
On the other hand - friends, family and all of you with no training in radiology or related fields - guess away! But I challenge you to watch the video several times before you guess. What I once thought was the baby's hand turned out to be the umbilical cord. We'll find out if you're right early next year!

New Ultrasound Video
Hi all. I finally got around to editing our big ultrasound video. This one was at about 5 1/2 months. You can watch all 21 minutes of it in three parts if you look on my Youtube profile. Or you can just watch the ~2 minutes of highlights, including some good shots of the babies legs and arm, it's heart, and it's eye.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
