Chubulence!

Some recent bathtime pics of my ever-adorable niece Hannah!

Behold, our little bean!

Here are four images from my first ultrasound session, which took place this afternoon. According to my doctor everything is looking hunky dory, and the fetus has a healthy heart rate of 150 beats per minute. Given the measurement of the fetus, she estimated a gestationaI age of 7 weeks, 4 days -- a tad further along than we'd originally calculated. But given the nebulousness of these things, we're still shooting for my original due date of September 6.

One of the niftiest parts about this experience was that I was able to see my little guy/girls' heart beating (even if it's too soon to hear it just yet). There it was, fluttering right before my eyes like a thimble jellyfish -- an amazing and quite moving thing to see! I hope you all enjoy the images of this newest addition to clan Foster.
