Marty and I went back to the Baby Belly Spa to have the 4D ultrasound pictures taken of Sophia. Needless to say, she is VERY cute! From what the pictures show, she has very chubby cheeks and long fingers and toes. She was also very active during our visit which allowed the technician to get some great pics- I think about 26 in all-- I didn't want to bore you with all of them so I just posted the best ones. It amazes me that she is so active and I still don't feel her as much. The tech told us that was due to the positioning of the placenta. She was cute to watch as she was yawning a lot as well as sticking out her tongue at us! Her head is pointed down toward my right hip which explains the random pain I have been feeling lately. The tech also checked her heart rate which was at 152 beats. All looks good!
We wish March would hurry up and get here so we can meet her in person!

Christmas
Merry Christmas to all! Marty and I had a very nice Christmas this year. We celebrated with my family on Christmas Eve, then Christmas Day it was off to Wanda's to be with his side of the family. We had a great time at both places and are blessed to have such wonderful family!!! By far the most favorite of my gifts was a Christmas ornament that was inscribed with Williams 2010. It also has stockings with Marty, Bobbi, Sophie, Jasper and Allie on it!! I saw it and, of course, it made me cry, but I absolutely LOVE it!!! Thanks, Brad and Katie!!
Sophie is not even here yet and she made out like a bandit! She received clothes, books, a swing, changing pad and cover just to name a few things! Marty is off work this upcoming week which means he will have lots to do including painting Sophia's room and putting together a few items. After the room is painted, I am sure we will be even more impatient to meet our little girl! March is really right around the corner, I just hope that January and February go by a little quicker than they usually do (it always seems like the LONGEST months ever!).
As for me, I am feeling pretty good, just a little comfortable at times. It is so hard to get a really good night's sleep with having to get up every hour. Guess I should jst get used to it as I know it will not get any better in the upcoming weeks.

28 Week Appointment
Nothing really to report about today's appointment- it all went very well. I don't have to return until January 5th! Dr. V took a measurement of my belly and said my size was completely normal at this stage. I will have another ultrasound at week 37 to check her weight again. Her heartbeat was great at 161 beats a minute. It is always so great to hear it, I could listen to that sound for hours.
I have been feeling well. My only complaints are that it seems like I am always hungry and my feet started swelling. I was in denial about the swelling feet and ankles- blaming it on new socks and thought they just might be too tight. I found out that I was very wrong on Monday when a normal pair of socks left marks on my leg :) Guess I should just get used to cankles.
After receiving the bedding for the nursery, I went to Lowe's last weekend and picked up some paint chips. We found a great pink to match and I can't wait for Marty to paint the room! I think that we will work on that over the break as Marty has taken the week between Christmas and New Year's off. Mom and Doug are working on the crib and I hope it will be done soon as well. I will post some pictures as soon as it is all ready!!!
