30 Weeks and in 3D!

I know I have fallen silent on the daddy blog for the past many weeks. I guess you could call it a second-trimester lull. Well we are at 30 weeks now and time is flying by! I can't believe August is winding down, October will be here before we know it! Today was also exciting because we went in for a 3d ultrasound. In all honesty we were a bit disappointed. With Amelia we used a company that specializes in 3D ultrasound just for enjoyment purposes. Our time there was amazing. The ultrasound tech spent a lot of time with us and took a ton of pictures of Amelia's whole body. We also got a recording of the actual ultrasound on DVD. This time we paid extra to have the 3D ultrasound at Anna's OB. There is no medical purpose for this ultrasound, it's again just for enjoyment. However, the time was very brief. The ultrasound tech only got shots of Selah's face. (I did have the tech confirm for sure that Selah is still a girl... she is!) We got a few images printed out and only a CD-Rom with stills. Not quite the same experience! However, it seems that the images of Selah are a more crisp than the ones of Amelia. Also, Amelia was at the ultrasound today and she was totally into watching the screen. She would point and say with an excited voice "baby!!" Here are some of the images from the session.
First is a side by side comparison of Amelia's 3D shot at 30 weeks (on the top) and Selah's. We are noticing some differences in features for sure... but the sibling resemblance has got to be there right!? Do you see it??




Here are some more shots of Selah's beautiful face. And yes, she stayed asleep the entire time :)
