Harrison is GROWING!

Josh and I had our 4D Ultrasound last night, so I decided that I would post all of Harrison's ultrasounds so everyone can see how much he's growing! I will be 27 weeks along this Friday...still can't believe that he'll be here in about 13 weeks! We also toured the maternity wing at the hospital where I'll be delivering. I'm really impressed with the security they have there, and knowing how things work really helps to take some of the stress off!

Over the next few weeks, we're also signed up for the birthing classes and for the newborn care class. I'm most looking forward to the newborn care class - especially since it's our first child...hahaha!

So, without further ado, below is Harry (that's what we've been calling him).

Harry's face - at this stage we didn't know if he was a boy or girl, so we had all kinds of nicknames for him. Names like peanut, kitkat, and various other nicknames.

Harry with his legs crossed





8/10/2010
Harry with his arm up by his face - you'll see in the 4D ultrasound that this seems to be one of his favorite positions!






8/13/2010
Harry waving hello to the world - this is one of my favorites, even though he looks a little like the Terminator in this picture...hahaha!






8/13/2010
Just chillin! Another one where he's doing a great impression of the Terminator!





8/13/2010
FIST PUMP!

What a handsome profile - these two pictures were the first inkling that he was going to have my nose!





9/7/2010
Hello again!

A close up picture of his face - smile, Harry!



9/30/2010
It's official - boy o' boy!


9/30/2010
Just chillin again! Let's just hope he's this laid back when he arrives!

Awww...look at those cute feet! Can't wait to play "This Little Piggy" with those cute little toes!




10/12/2010
Confirmation that he's a HE!


10/12/2010
Cute little foot again :-)


10/12/2010
Curled up with his hand up by his face again (like I said, that's one of his favorite positions!)


10/12/2010
I LOVE this one - looks like he's saying his prayers!

And now for the super clear 4D ultrasound images. We also have a video, but I'll have to see if I can get that loaded onto the blog. For now, we wanted everyone to at least enjoy the still images. These were taken on 11/23/2010.




Hand by his face again - maybe he's sucking his thumb?






One of my favorites - look at those chubby cheeks!


In some of the images it looks like he already has hair - and sometimes it even looked like he had his eyes open! It was really wild!

Our little angel!

And our favorite...

We hope you enjoyed Harry's pictures! We've got most of his nursery complete - we'll be painting next weekend. Once it's done, I'll be sure to get the pictures up.

Since I last wrote, we've welcomed home two of our friends, Nathen and Ricky! We're so glad they're home safely. We ask that you continue to pray for my cousin Brandon and for his men. We want him & all of his men to come home safely!
.
We hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! Of course, we'll miss not being home, but we have several friends coming over for lunch. We have so much to be thankful for and want each of you to know that we count you in our blessings! We love all of you and miss you very much!
.
Love and Blessings to All!
Josh & Wendy
