Elbows and Knees

Leg, foot and arm
Elbows, knees and a foot

Last Friday Ian, Cami and I went in for Aislyn's long awaited 4D ultrasound.  Aidan stayed at Grammy's knowing that his patience couldn't withstand this glorious event.  We were all so eager to see our little one's face...does she look like Cami, like Aidan, like neither???  Alas, all she would give us was elbows and knees- stinker.  As soon as the US tech put the wand on my belly she said "Oh these pictures will be GREAT!!!  The fluid looks so good we're going to get some really good pictures!"  Right then it was as though our little girl, already with a mind of her own, could hear the tech's words.  She turned over to face my spine and HIDE her face!!!!  For about 40 minutes we tried to turn her.  We nudged her, I laid on my side, then the other side, then the other side again...nothing.  So the tech gave me some cold water and a jolly rancher to try to get her stimulated...and it worked!!  But now she was moving so much and so fast, turning sommersaults, kicking and waving it was impossible to get a good still shot...not to mention she was still hiding her face.  So we finally called it a day.  We will try again this Friday to see if we can get a look at her face, but for now her elbows and knees will have to do.
