Got the news on Friday, and all we can say is whooo-hooo! For once in our sorry lives, something is going right. Baby is fine and has all its parts where they belong. We still do not know the gender, as we requested, but our child is clearly a genius, because it's already swallowing. We could see the little dark spot where the stomach was on the ultrasound, filled with amniotic fluid. The bizarre German doc who did the 4D ultrasound said that swallowing is an early IQ test, because swallowing for a 20-week-old baby is as hard as talking for a 2-year-old.
Read the funnier, more detailed report at Brando's blog, because I never could do it as much justice as he does.
Oh, I'm so glad!

I'm so happy for you guys. I'd be happier for me if you didn't move, because then I could see your baby all the time and my daughter's could babysit for you. See how I can turn it around and make it all about me?

Would you expect anything but a genius to come from your loins? A big ol' non-alcoholic CHEERS!
