Becoming a big sister...

We told Larkyn this summer that she was going to be a big sister, but I don't think it really sunk in until just recently, and even then it will most likely be quite an adjustment for her.  After our 20 week ultrasound we didn't have any great pictures to show because we had a very uncooperative baby.  He or she was very stubborn and would not move its head from my cervix!  The doctor had us come back for another ultrasound at 24 weeks so they could get the correct face measurements and make sure everything checked out okay. (They weren't worried, but needed their measurements.)  It was amazing the differences we saw at 24 weeks!  We could see so much more detail from the abdomen on up.  We saw our baby opening and closing his/her mouth, putting his/her hands up by their face, and even saw little peach fuzz hair on the head.  They did a regular ultrasound, but then switched to the 4D in the middle and got some great pictures.  We showed Larkyn her new baby brother or sister and she was thrilled.  She wanted to hold onto the pictures forever! 
 

Boy or Girl?  Who knows!?
