Our Princess

Emmerson decided not to cooperate at our ultrasound last Thursday, so we didn't get very good pictures. The good news is that she is healthy and growing nice and big, already weighing in at 3lbs and 13 oz. We did discover that she is super flexible... her head is pointing down (mom is hoping is stays that way) and somehow she managed to bend completely in half at the waist, so her butt was pointing up and her feet were down by her face. It was amusing during the ultrasound because we would see a picture of her face, with her elbow and a foot in it, too! The snakelike thing in this picture is her umbilical cord.
I think she has Bryan's nose and is already cute as a button. We are getting so excited to meet her.
We had breastfeeding class on Saturday morning which got me even more excited. It was so nice because Bryan even went to the class with me.... he is such a great husband and will be an amazing father! The class was so informative and I loved how "simple" they made breastfeeding sound. After listening to everyone's experiences with it and of course all of the horror stories, it is easy to feel overwhelmed by it. So I feel a million times better and now I'm just tapping my fingers waiting for our little princess's arrival!

Looks like she will be a cute little girl! Derrick said you sent him a text about his grandma. He appreciated that :) Hope all is well.
