The 4D Experience

I really suck at keeping this thing updated :)

I went in for my 4D Ultrasound on December 23rd. The whole family was able to come which was really cool. Mom, dad, my two sisters, Drew's parents and his little sister, and my 2 best friends in the whole world, Mallory (who was in from California) and Molly. I knew my kid was stubborn being that I was 21 weeks until we finally knew he was a boy, but HOLY COW! He buried his face in my placenta and so we could NOT get a face shot of him. We got a few profile shots but that's about it and even those weren't very good because the way they were taken made him look like he had a HUGE nose! Not gonna lie, it kinda scared me a little bit. Here are a few shots from the session.

Thankfully they let us reschedule for another day. 4D ultrasounds are NOT cheap so it's great that they let you do that. So skip ahead 2 weeks and we go in on Jan. 11th for the second 4D experience! All of the family gathers again to see if little Cadyn David will finally cooperate. We get in there get me all prepped and ready to go...we start the ultrasound and Cadyn is sideways again!! Little turd!! We keep pushing on my belly and I roll over trying to get him to turn and FINALLY, after 13 minutes, he turns! As soon as his little face popped up on the screen I was so overwhelmed with joy. There he was! His little cheeks have even filled out from the last time we were there. I may just be a proud momma, but he is so darn cute. Seeing him made me want him to hurry and get here! I wanna hold him so bad! Here are some of the pictures from the 2nd 4D.

Today I am officially 30 weeks pregnant. He still has 7 more weeks to cook until I am considered full term. Crazy how time flies...seems like just yesterday I was peeing on a stick. I'm glad it's gone by so quickly though...hopefully these next 7-10 weeks go by just as fast (or faster would be great). I'm really excited about next week. I have another Dr's appt. on Thursday, I am officially going every 2 weeks now. We got all preregistered at the last appt. so that was an exciting step. Next week is also Drew's 25th birthday and Saturday is my baby shower!! I am excited to see what all Cadyn gets so we can get it all prepared for him! Then, Saturday night we are going out for Drew's birthday....I haven't seen my Stillwater friends since November so I am really looking forward to hanging out with all of them. Well, that's enough writing for now...hopefully it won't take me a whole month to update next time :)
