My 20 Week Ultrasound

When Mommy was just about 20 weeks pregnant with me, she and Daddy got to go to the doctor for an anatomy ultrasound and were extremely excited to find out if they were going to have a lot of pink of blue in their future. Mommy thought I was a boy. Daddy knew deep down that I was a girl, although he really hoped that I would be a boy. Sure enough, the ultrasound tech told them that I was a girl! Daddy smiled, but was a little disappointed. He may not fully realize it yet, but I am going to have him wrapped around my little finger and he is going to have so much fun with me! After all, just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't watch sports with him when I'm little and play sports with him when I'm bigger. I'm a little athlete already. I have been practicing kicks and doing flips for weeks and weeks now!
At this ultrasound, I was about 10 inches long from head to toe. I grew a lot since last time they saw me! I was facing up in Mommy's belly with my feet above her belly button. Mommy and Daddy are curious how I can hang upside down in here and not have all the blood rush to my head! Hmmm...Here is a picture of me all curled up in the fetal position:
During this ultrasound, I was calm as can be. They woke me up during my nap, so I was still drowsy and didn't move a lot. Here's a picture of me with my head turned so you can see my face! You can also see my brain and my spine in this pic:
