Crib and Dresser
My mom and dad decided that they were going to get us our crib and change table for a gift. My mom and I went shopping for the day so that we could decide which one to get. We settled on the Storkcraft "Aspen" crib with the matching dresser/change table combo. Thanks guys! My dad came over that night and we set up the dresser. Aaron and I set up the crib the next night. We haven't really done much to the room besides put in the furniture. The room is so small that there is not much that we can do in there. We will probably put up a border and some shelving over the change table. The only other things that I'll get is a small rug and some sort of a window blind/curtain. Can't do too much more or there won't be room for a baby :)
More 3D ultrasound pictures
At our second appointment the little guy was a bit more cooperative. We had a different tech this time and she confirmed the gender for us with a 99.9% confidance level. Here are a few of the pictures that we got. If you click on the links you can see all of the pictures from both appointments (there are about 50 of them). We also got our DVD where you can actually see the baby's movements. It's pretty neat, although Aaron is compleatly sick of it since we have had to watch it with several different people.
Warning - Gender Spoiler!!
DON'T READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW THE GENDER!! We went for our 3D ultrasound today and found out that we are having....... a boy! The ultrasound guy said he is 99% sure, but Aaron is still unconvinced because he didn't "see it" very clearly. Jeeze, just trust the professional would you!?! So we went in for our 3pm appointment and, of course, the kid has its back to us THE ENTIRE TIME. The only pictures that we could get were of the kid's ear and back of the head. He then moved slightly so that we would be able to see the side of his face, only to immediately stick his hand up and cover his entire face. After an hour of this (broken up with me walking around, doing lunges, and poking my belly), we decided to come back at 6pm to see if the position had changed. The tech recommended a milkshake so we stopped at McDonalds and I got a big chocolate one. We got back at 6pm and (yay) he was now somewhat facing forward. The tech started to try to take some pictures but the software they were using kept crashing so he had to reboot. After the computer came back up, we took another look and got just this one profile picture before he stuck his arm and hand back over his face and turned around... and stayed there... for 30 minutes. The tech finally gave up and told me that I can come back another day and he would try again. I posted the only picture I have so far, but I'll post (hopefully) better ones after my next appointment. I also posted another belly picture since there hasn't been one for a while.
