Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes (and a heart, too) July 3, 2007

We went for our second sonogram today in Amarillo. I have some great pics to scan and email when we get a chance! We saw a facial profile, both arms with fingers, a developing brain, along with feet, legs, toes, the developing spine, kidneys, and all sorts of cool stuff! Baby is about 2 inches long, now. No word on gender yet, but the sonogram specialist thinks that we may have a boy! Don’t get too excited about that yet, though. We’ll know for sure in a matter of weeks.
Also, there is no doubt that this is a Hassell/Haddon baby. First, mommy is CRAVING spicy Mexican food–this keeps daddy and baby quite happy, too. Second, baby is quite jumpy! Our doctor and nurse really got tickled at the amount of activity that baby was showing this morning. There were lots of summersaults, backflips, and arm reaching. And the heart rate is 150 bpm-excellent.
I’ll see what I can do about those pics. Also, thanks for your prayers for me traveling to D.C. That is a GREAT city! I loved it, and was quite surprised by the good food there–the seafood especially. Like any big city, no one on the street spoke much in lines and things, but I had good conversations with some of the locals, even. Waitresses at one restaraunt got a big kick out of one group I was with one night from Abilene, though. We were were loud and having a good time. They thought we were pretty cool.
Security was high, as you can imagine, but people were somewhat patient at the airports, and I met people from Hereford and Lubbock on the planes. Even in Washington, D.C., it’s a small world.
