More Ultrasound Pictures

Last week I had to go in for yet another ultrasound. There were a few things they were still watching but are confident now that they baby is healthy and free of problems...a big relief for me.

When the ultrasound was finished the tech asked if I would like to see the baby in 4D. He explained to me that the baby has to be in a certain position to be able to do these kinds of pictures. They have to have a good amount of fluid in front of them and be free of anything "in the way". Of course in the walk between the two ultrasound rooms the little man decided to put his hands right in front of his face. So, here is a picture of one hand with 3 fingers tucked in.
Here is a video. Since his hand was in front the image is a tad distorted but mostly you can see a hand and nose/lips. Kind of interesting...but Ben says it is a little gross.

I'm also putting up a baby name poll. This is something we did for Nicholas and enjoyed hearing people speculate on which name we would choose. You will find it on the right side of the page...please vote!

Are any of those names family names?
Andrew is the only one that can be "nicknamed" so for Danelle's sake, name him Andrew so she can have Nick and 'Drew. :o)
Will the middle names come from this same list?

I love these new pictures! I'm still amazed by the images they can get with the new technology. Glad the baby Eli is in the clear now.
