It's a Thumbsucker!

For the third time in the past twelve weeks, I saw the most incredible thing today.
That's right, my baby has a HUGE head (possible career as San Fransisco Giant in the future?), arms, and legs! The photos taken this morning were the clearest images of our baby to date and it was the most incredible thing I've ever seen...until this was taken:I could have spent all morning watching this little (3 inches!) life sleep and wiggle its little arms around. But, as I'm learning, being a parent goes beyond just providing for and marveling at a child. It means worrying that my child might grow up different than its parents as a lefthander. And it also means that, like daddy, this kid's gonna need some braces. But it's waaaay too early to worry about that.

I got to hear my kid's heartbeat yesterday. I was hoping for an ultra-sound, but I won't get to see it until mid/late April.

How's your wife lucky enough to get ultrasounds each time?

This is actually the third time, the first was at her standard ob/gyn visit about eight weeks in.

My wife's family is prone to blood clots, so she is taking special precautions/medications for that -- the last two times we've had ultrasounds have been during visits with that specialist.

I don't think we'll be getting another for at least a month or so now.
