The Inside Story


I went back to The Inside Story to get a 3D/4D ultrasound when I was about 28 weeks. I should have known not to make my appointment in the middle of the day because she is NEVER awake during that time. Too bad they don't make appointments from 7 pm- 11 pm when she is most active!




I think this is one of my most favorite pictures of her. Most of the time during ultrasounds she has either her foot or her hand in her mouth. Here she was sucking on her foot and the ultrasound tech gave a little pressure and she popped her foot out of her mouth. When she snapped the shot she still had her lips drawn in and her cheeks all puffed up like she was still sucking. I just want to pinch and kiss all over those sweet cheeks.
 Her Aunt Kalina LOVED this picture too!



Some people have asked if she has black hair. NO, she does not have black hair, that is just something reflecting or interferring with the ultrasound. Hopefully, by the time she makes her appearance she will have some hair...we have lots of cute bows to put to good use!

 She was all snuggly! I tried to tell the ultrasound tech that she is typically sound asleep at 1:30 in the afternoon.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE :) One of the most amazing pictures I have seen.
Can't wait to hold that little hand!

Once again she was trying to put her thumb back in her mouth. To the right of her face is her foot.


The tech asked me to talk to her and see if I could get her to move for a few more pictures. So Brooklyn and I had a little talk while I went to the restroom. I told her "mommy just wanted ONE smile and I would leave her alone." It's a good thing she listens to her mommy so early in her life...I got the smile right off the bat! So I held up my end of the deal and let her go back to dreaming :) 


I went to The Inside Story twice with this pregnancy, once for gender confirmation and then for the 3D/4D ultrasound. The first time I went they gave me a stack of paperwork to complete, I think I had it all completed and back to them in less than 30 seconds. I have gotten VERY good at filling out all those forms QUICK. I have done it many times in the last year. It is sad when you have the address to your insurance company memorized. Question 6 was "What is the mom's date of birth?" I answered "3/3/1956", like I have a million times before. After all, that is MY mom's date of birth. The lady at the window asked me if in fact I was 54 years old and I looked at her funny and said "Well, no, I am 31" It didn't take me long to realize I AM the mom now and they needed MY date of birth! That is a name that I will have to get used to being called. But it does have a nice ring to it!

You got very cute 3d pics! When we got Livi's we accidently waited too long asn she was all squished looking but we got a couple that really did look like her. Poor baby she had my nose and chin then and now!
