Baby Olive,
Two days ago we finally got to see you on ultrasound. They call me back and they set up the equipment. I have a better view than Mommy though, and before the doctor can point you out on the screen I make out your little head and body. It just kept getting better, the doctor pointed out where your little arms and legs were, and in the middle there was this little spot that kept flickering. That would be your heartbeat. Mommy and I were happy just to see you on the screen and hear that everything is going like it should.
As we were just taking a second to look at you, you suddenly MOVED! We didn't expect it but suddenly you flailed your little arms and legs. I thought the only movement we would see at this point would be your heartbeat but you were in full on wiggle mode. It was amazing. The doctor printed out four different pictures from the ultrasound but the one he gave to us is probably the worst of the bunch in that you look very unbaby like. Its OK, I saw the baby wiggle action for myself, I know how you really look. I will get to see you again on May 18. That will also be when we find out whether we'll be painting your room blue or pink. It was amazing to finally see you, Baby Teasley.
