Today, we got to see our precious baby girl up close! What an incredible experience! After going back and forth about doing or not doing the 3D photos, we are SO glad that we did it...it was worth every penny to see our baby girl! This afternoon, Philip and I headed up to a place called Baby's First Images up in Alpharetta, and both of our mom's met us up there to take a sneak peak at their grandbaby! What an experience! We walked into a room with the ultrasound tech and there was seating to the side of the exam table and a huge screen on the wall that projected the images from the ultrasound, so we didn't all have to crowd around a small computer screen. It was awesome! Philip stood next to me and our moms sat next to us, all of us just staring at the large screen on the wall of our little one...each of us tearing up, laughing, calling out "oh my gosh, look at that...leg, hand, face, etc". And we got to hear her strong heartbeat on the sound system in the room - it was all priceless! Kinsley, from what we saw, loves keeping her hands (and her feet -
seems she's very flexible) up by her face, was actually playing with her feet, opened and closed her eyes and her mouth constantly, and even she gave us a few smiles - one particular smile came when I started talking to her...ah, that was my favorite moment by far. And we confirmed that our Kinsley's still a mover (even the ultrasound tech commented on her constant moving and squirming, which is a great thing), but she did fully cooperate in the short 15 minutes we were in there to get us some pretty great shots...here are a couple of our baby girl that we get to meet in 89 days...and wow, if this experience today didn't make us even more excited to meet her...wow...
Here's our baby girl...I cannot believe that she is looking like a "real baby." I mean, I read in books and websites what she's supposed to look like by 27 weeks, but it was amazing to see her here as this sweet baby, with a nose and eyes and chubby cheeks and fingers and toes. We are already in love with her.
Here's her big, round, sweet face...she seems to be grunting or something. Maybe frowning cause we woke her up. Sorry baby girl, I needed you awake for these 15 minutes! :)
This one's hard to see clearly, but she's rubbing her eyes and we got a clear shot of her little arm, hand, and fingers!
Open eyes and a big yawn and hands up by her face.
Side profile shot with her right arm and hand up by her face, and both legs and feet also up by her face...as I said above, she seems to be very flexible and quite comfortable this way!
Below is some video that they gave us from the session...it doesn't show the back of her head - don't freak out - because of where the ultrasound waves were hitting. But you get to see a good profile shot, her opening and closing her mouth, and then at around 18-19 seconds in, Kinsley starts playing with her foot up by the right side of her face, and you really see here move her feet back and forth at around the 27 second mark!
