Ultrasonic Goodness
So we went in for our first big-time, fancy ultrasound at the UT Womens Health Center. There we received some very good news: our little one appears healthy and normal. Unfortunately, baby wasn’t very enthusiastic about the photo session, so we weren’t able to get good profile or head shots. Our player-to-be-named-later spent much of the time with hands and arms blocking every decent angle.
Jordan thinks the shyness is a good indicator the baby is a girl. But we remain steadfast that we will not find out the gender of the baby until he/she debuts on his/her birthday.
For you stats junkies, here are a few salient facts:
- The heart rate is 153.
- Weight is 13 ounces.
- And the baby is about the size of a can of soda.
Finally, as promised, we are posting the ultrasound pics here for you. So you gender detectives can check out this kid in high-resolution awesomeness. But if you figure it out, don’t tell us. Jordan would have you hung by your thumbs. I am not kidding. Those pirates got off easy compared to you potential spoilers.

Awww…thanks for sharing those, Marshall. I see lots of cuteness already!
Loved the ultrasound pictures. Thanks for sharing. Based on the picture of baby’s foot, it looks like he/she is going to be tall and have Marshall’s long slender foot. Should be fun when he/she is a teenager and you are trying to fit him/her with tennis shoes! Would love to know what Grandpa Frank thinks about gender based on this. I sure can’t tell much, but some things are easier to see and understand when you are watching them as “action” shots instead of “stills.” Soda can size, huh? Well, he/she looks healthy and we can’t wait for the big day! Still wish I knew whether to buy pinks or blues, but it is fun shopping for greens and yellows so I am not complaining! Just ready to have another little one to hold and call me Nanny!
Awww!! I am so glad that you got new pics up!! I love the little foot and 5 little toes. I am glad everything is going smoothly. Keep up the posting!
