Anyhow, the official due date is November 22, which is the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. I had a doctor's appointment this week, and everything looks great. We were surprised with some cool 3D shots during my ultrasound, so here's a sneak peek at what baby brother looks like at 28 weeks (roughly 7 months). Its hard to tell, but there's a hand up by his eye (with his fingers curled outward like he's waving) and a foot up by his mouth.
Assuming the baby arrives on time, he and Scarlett will be almost exactly 22 months apart (so just shy of two years). Scarlett has taken a huge interest in babies and dolls over the last several months. She hugs them, kisses them, feeds them, gives them drinks from her sippy cup, and puts diapers, clothes, and shoes on them. She shushes you if one of her babies is sleeping, and tells them "night night" when it's time to go to bed. We're hoping these are all good signs that she'll be interested in -- or at lest tolerant of -- the baby when he arrives.
Here is a picture of Scarlett back in May posing for the pictures we used to give to grandparents on Mother's Day to announce the baby's upcoming arrival.
One of the baby's nicknames is "Little Turkey," so how perfect is this get up? (I'm already embarrassing the poor little guy and he's not even here yet.)
