Molly's 4D Ultrasound!!


The pictures to the side are just some of the pics we got today at the ultrasound!

Aren't they unbelievable???

We also got a DVD with Molly moving her little hands, and making faces. Not sure how to share that here yet. So here is a taste of what we saw through pictures! You can click on the pic to make it bigger.

The picture in the top left corner has her smiling! And some of the others have her pushing on mommy's stomach, or sleeping with her hands by her face! The wavy lines you see on her head, is actually hair!

We are certainly biased, but we are in love with her!! And if you could see some of Michael's newborn baby photos...you would be shocked how much Molly looks like him!!! I think she may be a daddy's girl!!

I can't tell you how moving it was to see Molly in this much detail. She is a real little baby, and there she is inside me, growing. Maybe God invented pregnancy to remind us all how beautiful human life is.

I don't know how anyone could see their little baby moving and sleeping like this...and not know that God exist. I think seeing Molly today made Michael and I realize even more- what a miracle this baby is! What a wonderful gift from God. This beautiful, real baby. It takes my breath away to think of what an honor it is, that God has trusted us with this teeny, tiny human being!

I can't wait to hold this little girl!! And I just feel awe when I think about this whole pregnancy. What an amazing experience. And what a wonderful gift from heaven- our little miss Molly.

CONGRATULATIONS to you both!! She is so adorable and such a cutie!!! The first pic of her smiling is so cute!! She looks alittle like she's laughing and playing:) I agree with you, just listening to everything going on with the pregnancy and watching the ultrasound pics and hearing your feelings even reminds me (and we are like a hundred states away!) of the miracle of human life, so Thank You for sharing all this! Its such a beautiful and awesome, and just mindblowing actually, thing that she cuddles up to you and smiles and plays and lives inside you!! I want to see a baby pic of Michael to see how much they look alike!!! Love you, Michael and little miss Molly!

Thanks Nic!

It was a super cool experience. When you and Martin have kids you should defenitely do the 4D uktrasound! It's so weird to see the baby just living and moving inside your belly!!

PS. I get to see you soon! Maybe you'll get to feel Molly kick!
