This post is about the past week, and there are quite a few things that have occurred:
We went in for the more-detailed 21 week ultrasound. The single umbilical artery was re-confirmed, but more importantly, everything looks GOOD! The ultrasound tech really spent a long time pointing out our little dude's anatomy and explaining why what she saw indicated that he is normal- so no visible birth defects! Dr. Dickerson reiterated the tech's report. We breathed a sigh of relief!
He was weighing in at about 1 pound, which is 50th percentile on the growth charts. It is so amazing what you can see on the ultrasound! We saw lots of brain development (both hemispheres, sulci and gyri, corpus callosum), kidneys, stomach, bladder, hands, legs, feet, obvious boy parts, and below is a picture of his face. It's a little freaky, but I think it is so cool!
And here is the 21 week belly shot:
Anna was getting ready for the Saints game and modeling her "Who Dat" wear, created by Shaun. Actually, this was his mask, but Anna absconded it.
Shaun has been singing "Pants On the Ground" to Anna, so here is her version of it:
We decided to paint our (very beige, boring) kitchen over the weekend. We were going for a sunny, happy shade of yellow...
Anna wanted to help, but was just too tired to paint when this picture was taken.
She did, however, help us tape up the kitchen before her nap.
Once she woke up, she was raring to go! Aren't Shaun and I brave?
Anna actually painted for a while, and did a great job covering this corner by the door. A couple of minutes AFTER this pic was taken, she painted the door... So I put her to work making some coffee in her kitchen.
Here are the results. It's a little, um, brighter than we expected. The border is another project down the line...
We are fairly pleased by the results. At least it's not beige anymore.
