The Baker's Dozen

OK, so it's a been a while....a real long while, since I've blogged. And I apologize....however, blogging is a privilege to me, not a right. Therefore, when life gets busy or priorities happen, blogging stops. The list of items that have required my attention:

1) Pregnancy- we are expecting our beautiful little girl in January

2)Boards- for those followers, the boards have consumed me for years and are FINALLY done

3)Kevin- he is both in school for his MSW and works full time, so therefore I must be domestic...

4)Neo and Nala- as usual, they take precedence over most things in our life

5)Work- being a genetic counselor AND pregnant is no small task!....talk about anxiety!

Anyway, here is a pictorial display through the wonderful technology of ultrasound of our daughter beginning at 6 weeks. I have included the best 13 photos....as to spare you from having to look at the entire set of 50 or 60!



Our little blob at 6 wks...



The blob became a bean at 8 wks...

Face shot! Do you see her 2 little eyes staring at you??? I think she looks like some sort of transformer here at 12 weeks..

Now that's a pretty baby!!!!

Here she is at about 16 wks laying face down on her cushy placenta bed

"Oh, the drama!" See her hand on her forehead? If this is a sign of things to come, then boy are we in trouble!

"Put up your dukes!" Wow...she's feisty



Holy Sasquatch Batman! Check out the size of that foot!

Looking calm and peaceful at 22 weeks..

At 26 weeks, her nose looks squished, but really it was the ultrasound wand smashing her little face in...

Ahhh, that's better. "What a perky nose, she has", stated the doctor. Is that an official medical term? Perky?

26 1/2 weeks putting her hands up by her face again

Uh Oh...the hand is creeping in more..."No more pictures!", she replies.
