The Baby Dance

Today was our first trimester screening at the hospital. Our second ultrasound. This is "Blueberry's" first ultrasound picture. About 8 1/2 weeks. "Blueberry" was very still and did not move around much. We were able to hear the heartbeat it was about 169 beats per min.
Today's ultrasound was much more interesting. Talk about active! We are just about 13 weeks now. When the Dr. first put the wand over the baby it was doing a headstand. It must like that position because it kept going back to it! You can see the headstand in the 2nd picture below.
It was so amazing to see it's little heartbeat flashing. This time it was about 157 beats per min. The Dr. said that everything looks perfect. On October 9th we get to find out if our little blueberry is a boy or a girl! Can't wait!
This is one amazing time in our life! My favorite part about today was looking over at Mike, his eyes glued to the screen and his mouth agape.... I am sure I looked the same way!

That headstand picture is awesome!

So, are you hoping for a boy or a girl? Any preferences?
