Second Ultrasound

Flowers, gifts and cards from friends and family...

It's you...all 18.6 mm!

....waiting and excited for ultrasound #2!

Little One,
Here are your newest pictures. You are growing so big already. Last time we saw you you were 2.8 mm long. Now, you are 8 weeks and 4 days along and 18.6 mm long. You are due on March 19th, 2010. I have to admit that I have been anxious about your continued growth and development. When I shared my anxiety with your Great Grama Seeley, she reminded me that I need not fear, because you are held in the hollow of his hand. He is the one creating you and hovering over you as He did over the first of His creation.

You are fearfully and wonderfully made and even though you have grown so much you are still so small. You are the size of a kidney bean. You are already full of energy. You moved your little self around for us today and Dr. G said, "Did you see that?" and I said "Yes, my baby moved!" Your daddy and I saw your heart pumping away and you starred in your second video, you were great!!! We also were able to see the blood pumping though the umbilical cord. Your daddy is so excited and has even made plans for a special dinner tonight. He told me that I have to dress up! And guess what? You are coming along. So enjoy your special dinner tonight. It is the first official celebration in your honor, little one. We love you! Remember, you are being held perfectly by His love. Love, mommy

Isaiah 45:3
I will give you the treasures of darkness,
riches stored in secret places,
so that you may know that I am the LORD,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.

Genesis 1:2
...and darkness was on the face of the deep,
and the Spirit of God was hovering over
the face of the waters.
