Today was a good day...
Not only did Naomi get to eat chicken nuggets for the first time, but she also got to see the little person she'll be big sister to in about 7 months via ultrasound.
Yes, you read that right! We're due September 16.

A Day of 7's
Today we had our 37 week appointment with the doc. We got to have an ultrasound - the first one in 17 weeks. The tech took all sorts of measurements - around her skull, her belly & chest, her arm bones & leg bones. She is looking perfect! She is in the 77th percentile for her gestational age, and weighs... you guessed it, 7lbs on the dot.
I should also note a few other things:
We have, perhaps, the most uncooperative baby in the world. We asked for them to confirm Lemon's sex again, JUST TO BE SURE, but no luck. She was sitting on her feet. She was also covering her face with both hands, so no look at that, either! Then, when it was time to measure her heart rate, once again she landed me a non-stress test as she decided it would be fun to practice her karate moves, or gymnastics, or jazzercise - whatever it is she likes to do in there. An hour later we got a healthy baseline heart rate and were allowed to leave.
Our baby, as predicted, has a LOT of hair. It was the first thing the technician said when she saw her skull. This is not surprising and it is why, as I mentioned before, I have already started Lemon's hair clip collection. Now I'm just curious what color it will be!
And, as I could have also guessed, her head measured a bit large, and her arms and legs a bit short... daddy's traits, for sure!
It was good to say hello to her today. I just can't wait for it to happen for real! Anyone want to put money on Dec 27 or Jan 7??

What can Lemons make?
According to the picture above from failblog.org, lemons are good for making orange juice (what?!).
Another thing we have recently learned about lemons is that they are good for making GIRL BABIES! Yes, you read that right! We are expecting a little girl. The poll showed that most of you were right-on in your guess. If this was you, it is your time to gloat in the comments. We are ecstatic, of course! We both voted girl in the poll.
For those of you who are curious about where exactly we are in the baby-making process, we officially hit the half-way mark today. 20 weeks down, 20 (give or take) to go!
And now for the unveiling... some fresh new ultrasound pics:
