I was literally giddy Friday night and Saturday morning anticipating getting to see our daughter in 4d. Had I realized when I made the appointment that our little one would get in a sleeping pattern in the womb, I wouldn't have made the appointment for 10:00 a.m. - she's always asleep then. We left at 9:30 so we'd have time for a quick sugar/caffeine fix (glazed donut and a coke) hoping that Baby GoodNix would be "encouraged" to move around for the photo shoot. When I first hopped on the table and we saw her, she was in a good position and we got to see her face almost immediately.
But then she settled into a good sleeping position and turned away from the "camera." No amount of poking or prodding on my part could convince her to move.
Shelly, the owner of this StorkVision location, had me get another drink and walk the halls. Unfortunately, nothing I did could convince her to turn around. The hard-headedness definitely runs in the family! Shelly (really sweet woman) invited us to come back in a couple of hours so we could try again. That was just fantastic of her. She did encourage us to eat lunch before you return. We went to Right Start to look at baby strollers and car seats, then had lunch at Pot Belly (no pun intended) before heading back. I was not really hungry, but ate anyway hoping that this would get her moving.
This time, we got what we were wanted - fantastic pictures of our little one, moving around, kicking, trying to stick her hand in her mouth. It is hard to believe that she is going to be here in just 3 short months (or less)!!
