Thursday I had a free ultrasound done by a tech who is training to pass a test for the nuchal fold. (An area in the back of the baby's head they check for Down Syndrome). I was happy to come in and have another ultrasound. This was the best one we ever had. The baby was jumping everywhere.. It arched it's back, and stretched out, sucked it's thumb, had hiccups, waved... all sort of stuff. It was amazing. The cool thing was there was enough room in there for the baby to move vs. the 20 week ultrasound when it's starting to get more cramped.
Here is a head on view.

Thursday night Abby had missed her afternoon nap and she fell asleep in minutes, rocking w/ me at the computer chair. I had to wait like this until Rich got home from choir b/c I'm not supposed to carry her yet. As you can see my tummy is starting to pouch out a bit! actually more then a bit.. I'm as big now as I was when I was 18 weeks w/ Abby! and I'm only 13 weeks!
