03/08/2007: "At long last"

Finally! The CD from the 3D ultrasound place arrived today and I can now share the pictures with you! We were beginning to think the long-promised jpgs were lost to the ether and would never show up. And you are glad you waited because the sepia pictures are, in fact, better than the black and white pictures, if only because it's easier to imagine the inside of a uterus being sepia toned. Well, it's easier for me, anyway. Sepia tones are like old friendly photos, while black and white is more akin to East Germany in the 1960's. I don't want to think of the womb as a bastion for Communism, so there you go.

I will shut up now. Here is the baby, who we have decided to name Dessa Juliana:

Here is my accomplished child either picking her nose or bashing herself in the head. We are so proud.

Later, she took up boxing:

Here is our child, a la The Thinker. Doesn't she look like she's concentrating on something?

Her head looks wierd in this next one, but I'm assured that it's the ultrasound software and not something bizarre with her actual skull:

And here she is with her mouth open, and frowning. She was drinking the amniotic fluid here and I assume there was something in there she didn't care for, given her facial expression.

There are a few others on the disk we got but these are the clearest. I would show you the image of her arms, legs and girl parts all tangled up together because it looks like a total mess in there and kind of cracks me up, but I will spare you (and Dessa) the crotch shot. I can imagine her 13 years from now, "Moooooooom! How could you show my naughty bits to the woooooorld!"

I'll simply hide those shots away for blackmail material. You can never start too early.
