3D Ultrasound

Holy Cow. I've never been so excited to share ultrasound pictures. Here is the fruit of my labor aka. the perks of having complications in pregnancy.

He's the best! 2. My neighbors, friends, and family check up on me all the time to make sure i'm OK. 3. My sweet mother-in-law helps with my laundry. 4. I have more time to read, watch TV, and grade papers (which I love to avoid at all costs). 5. I get to sit on this great swivel chair while I teach my class and roll around while I teach. 6. I get hooked up to a monitor once-a-week to check con...
