It's a... Surprise!

I had my ultrasound last Friday.  Thanks, Kimber, for babysitting Heidi. 

Baby Number Two, Braun Number Four, retains its secret.  It is either a boy or a girl.  I think the ultrasound tech showed pity on my and gave me more photos than normal (at least than last time.)  
The circle at the right is a cross-section of the baby's belly, and then  there are two arms coming off to the left.  The elbows are right next to the belly and the hands are together.  

The technician scanning me was surprised that the baby had  its fingers spread out, instead of  in a fist.  Waving at mommy, I guess.  

Foot.  Toes on top. Crossed at the ankles. 

Two images, side by side.  On the left, you can see a perfectly formed little leg.  That just kicked me.  

Here's the creepy one that I won't scrapbook.  It's the skeleton baby picture.  I guess you can see the words "eye" next to each dark spot (which are eyes.)  To the left of the eyes is the brain, and the right the body. 

Apparently everything was okay, because baby is giving me a thumbs up.  
So that's us!
