Probably Not the Last Time Baby Pictures Will Reduce Me to a Sappy Pile of Sap
July 07, 2005
We had one of those fancy new-fangled yuppie-riffic 4D ultrasound things today.
And damn, I'm so blown away and totally in love with my little boy that I'm rendered completely snarkless. I mean, look! A baby! Who is mine!
He spent most of the session hiding behind his hands and sucking on his toes, but he eventually cooperated and let us get a good look at his beautiful little face.
We invited our parents to attend, which meant there were six slightly blubbering adults crammed into the same room.
My mom thinks he looks like me.
10 fingers, 10 toes. Everything looks perfect.
Also cute little ears.
12 more weeks until he's here. I seriously can't wait.
It was great to meet you today, little guy. Your mama and daddy love you. A lot.
How precious! I'm in tears as well.
Ok..go ahead and just make me cry...Congrats..he's beautiful
Amazing! Those things are amazing.
I love babies.
De-Lurking here.
How beautiful he is!
I sobbed like the pregnant chick I was when we saw our little girl on the 4D. She looks just like her pictures today even.
Congratulations on putting the face with the boy kicking your liver. :)
Wheeeeee! Sob. Just...wow.
Does he look like you cos he sucks on his toes? Hee.
He DOES look like you! He's adorable! In about 15 years you'll be beating the girls off him with a stick!
Congrats to you and Jason!
I have never seen a 4D ultrasound...wow, absolutely amazing!! Your boy is gorgeous, just like mom & dad!
Ohhh lordy! He's so cute, with those cheeks and those cupid's bow lips already making little gurgly sounds!
And dude. Huge feet. You're birthing a stallion there. A Studalah.
Awesome! This baby already rocks.
Obviously, it runs in the family.
*melt*
OMG I'm weeping here. He's adorable and has beautiful parents.
Wow! What a cutie! He really does look like you, too =)
Wow! What a cutie! He really does look like you, too =)
awwwww.
I love the babies.
I can't lurk after this... those pictures are AMAZING. Congratulations!!
I REALLY wish they would have had those when I was pregnant.
Congratulations, he is simply beautiful. You and Jason are so so lucky.
Awww. He's beautiful. Congratulations, Amy.
Awwwwwww... Am entirely speechless.
Those pictures are just priceless. I love the one of his adorable little face.
I am anticipating when it is my turn! We are waiting to see how cooperative our little one will be in the next couple of weeks at the ultra-sound. If he/she doesn't reveal themselves, we'll get it sooner than later!
Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous! Congratulations :)
What an adorable little guy! Thanks for sharing the pics!
Good stuff, Squishy! And he *does* look like his momma. But I'll betcha he'll be dark like Daddy.
So beautiful! congrats to you both. seriously tears in my eyes!
Those are adorable pictures
Congrats!
awww! that's amazing and what a cute little facey face!
I saw on your side links that they suspect the little girl's body has been found. I was saddened. How bittersweet it was at your site today; with the ultrasound pictures and your Hating comment.
How unbearably adorable is he?????? Amalah and Jason, your son is perfect--congratulations to both of you.
I'll bet those pictures make it even easier for you to feel like you're getting to know your sweet little boy already...
*whimpering*
I had never seen a 4D sonogram before. That is amazing, he looks so gorgeous.
Oh my god he is too cute! I'm not usually one to cry either... And he DOES look like you!
What a very cute squishy!
He is so cute! I have to get one of those NOW cause that is way too cool and a hell of a lot better than those black and white ones.
Woow!
amazing cute little boy.
Well done and good luck to the rest of the 12 weeks - and beyond!
Amazing! He's so cute, too! All I can say is wow, we didn't have those back in the old days; ultrasounds even were only done in high risk cases.
Amalah,
He is unbelievably beautiful! You will have to set aside a whole new space on your page for gorgeous Sqishy pictures!
That is just so cute!! That is awesome that you share that with everyone! I enjoy reading your blog its very amusing.
delurking... wow, what a beautiful child! Those toes and fingers are absolutely adorable, how will you ever say no to this child?! :)
wow. I used to think the idea of seeing a 4D image of your baby in utero was creepy. But that was adorable. I think he does look like you.
Isn't it AMAZING? Our 3rd child is due in 17 wks, and can totally relate. And as much as you think you love him now, just wait til he's here! I never imagined that I could FEEL that strongly about anyone. And your love for Jason will multiply, as well. It is truly overwhelming.....good luck.
mmc
I have never seen an ultrasound picture like that before. How amazing! How exciting for you!
I have to tell you, reading this blog does not help a woman keep her baby fever in check.
That's really cool. I had no idea they had ultrasounds like this.
And Frema's right - it's hard to control the baby fever when you do posts like this. Talking about all the gross body reactions though... that's another story! ;)
Those pictures are so amazing. Technology can do some pretty awesome things these days. Thank you for sharing Squishy with us!
I really needed to see something really beautiful today and your little boy made my day. Actually I showed the pictures to everyone that I work with and they all agree that he is very beautiful. Thanks
You have an absolutely beautiful baby boy :) I agree with everyone else, he does look like you :) I'm SO having a 4D ultrasound next time!
Congratulations, the twelve weeks will go fast. Then you will be able to kiss those little feet and ears.
Thank you guys for sharing your progress and the beautiful pictures with the rest of the masses. He really is perfect. Congratulations, you done good. :)
Holy cow. Wow.
Actually he does look like you! Those 4D ultrasounds are the best andhe looks just beautiful. I can't speak for all the commenters but I'm pretty sure they would agree: we can't wait to "meet" him either!
Have a happy third trimester.
Technology is stupidly amazing. Congratulations. May your boy wear his Coach outfits (and i'm SURE there will be such a thing) proudly :)
I am amazed by the technology! It's beautiful. I think when you find out someone is going to have a baby, the hardest part is having to WAIT to see what they look like...you don't!
Congrats, he is BEAUTIFUL...wait that's not a man word...um...HANDSOME, HOT, but most of all...your baby son!
