Pregnancy Progress

Every woman loves getting photographed...especially when it's progress of how much fatter she's getting. Seriously though, this is the only time getting bigger is better.  And it's fun to document the progress.  At 27 weeks the baby was estimated to be 2.7 lbs (an average 27 week old is 2 lbs).  Doesn't seem like much of a difference, but at this rate we're putting our money on another big baby!  Grow belly grow - healthy is all we care about!

Baby #2, second ultrasound

Doctor wanted us to go in for another ultrasound to check out baby's heart.  The first ultrasound baby was moving too much to get some good photos and confirm blood flow.  It was fun for us because of course the technician snuck in a few face shots too.

You decide....is it going to be a Liam Patrick or Ellie Jane?? (names subject to change of course)

Great picture of the face, thank you baby for moving your arm. 

Lips and nose look very similar to baby's sibling :)

Baby #2 Ultrasound

We are well into the pregnancy now, 6 months down only 4 to go.  These ultrasound pictures were taking at exactly 1/2 way through (20 weeks).  The results were great!  The baby weighed just under 1 pound in these photos, crazy how tiny it is.  Although the baby was tiny, the doctor still said the baby is "biggish".  Oh boy!  The Hendricks blood line sure knows how to have BIG babies!  If you can't make out the photos, don't feel bad - until I became a mom I could never figure these things out either.

 Eye, nose, and lips - with it's hand touching it's nose.

 We like this one because it's a great picture of the face.  We think the nose and lips look very similar to Gavin (which takes after mom)

 Baby would not hold still for the ultrasound technician - but it did wave as she took a picture.

 Cutest little foot we've ever seen!!

All cuddled up in a little ball - but a great profile picture of the entire healthy little munchkin!

Girl or Boy you ask?  We don't know, we don't want to!  The lab was even great about sending the results to our doctor and left off those details - so no chance of our doctor slipping up either.  We won't know if we're doing natural or C-Section until  November.  Stay tuned, we'll keep you all posted.
