Ultrasound and Dr Appt (27 Weeks)

I had my ultrasound on Thursday and my follow-up appointment today. Apparently everything is still on track. Both girls weigh 2 1/2 pounds which is exactly 50th percentile. There is lots of amniotic fluid and there are no signs of pre-term labor. I am now at appointments every 2 weeks which becomes really fun!

The girls have nearly been permanently named. Joshua use to call them Bumblebee and Homer but has recently switched to Kaitlyn and Emily. I'm still holding out for Madeline instead of Emily, but I guess we'll just wait and see what she looks like. Kaitlyn is a definite name and we will call her Katie, although you will be welcome to call her ALMOST anything you like. : )

The ultrasound picture is only of Baby B (Emily). Baby A (Kaitlyn) is very very low and refuses to have her picture taken. We've not gotten one decent picture of her because she chooses to hide behind my pelvic bone at every ultrasound. Maybe the next one we'll get a good one!

Oh my goodness what a pretty little baby! If you need any hair bows for any potentially bald heads let me know ;)

Hehehe! Thanks! The boys were both really hairy, I expect the girls will be the same. If I can get a blond hair, blue-eyed girl through, I'll be the happiest mommy ever. Dan's genes are super strong though, so I'm sure they'll be dark. :)

What a beautiful picture! Hannah could even tell it was a picture of a baby! I'm so glad things are going well!

Joshua stopped saying it! It breaks my heart. When asked what his sisters names are he actually says Kaitlyn and Emily. I was so sad the first time he did it. Sometimes if you ask him what HIS babies names are, he'll add Homer and Bumblebee in there. :(

I think Kaitlyn and Emily are good names! Madeline is too popular. Go with Joshua's suggestions. :)
