On August 12 at 2:30 Mike and I had our visit at Tennessee Maternal Fetal Medicine for our first round of prenatal testing. During the visit, we had an ultrasound which measured different aspects of Lil' Shaffa to make sure that development was within the appropriate range. To our surprise, the ultrasound lasted about thirty minutes. It was great to be able to watch and visit with our baby for that long.
Lil' Shaffa, it seemed as if you were quite cozy and keeping yourself completely occupied which made us very happy. You flipped and flopped all over, you were opening and closing your hands, which we like to believe you were waving to us, and you were bouncing all around. At the end of the ultrasound we believe you may have even been sucking your thumb. The ultrasound tech said that you didn't have the ability to suck your thumb yet, but your dad and I are convinced that you are simply an overachiever. I just want you to know how excited and proud your dad was while we were watching you. We heard your heartbeat and called your Nona so she could listen. Your cousin Chloe was there and was also able to listen. This made them both very happy! After the phone call, your dad took two or three videos documenting your movements. We can't wait to show you this some day.
We love you and are looking forward to our next visit with you on September 24, 2010.
