Uh-Oh

Obama Rally 10/30/08

We never actually got to see Barack Obama, but we could hear him loud and clear. We'll tell Lucia when she's older that she was there when Obama came to town to make his final case for presidency. Here's the proof...

Update

Well, nothing new has happened here. Lucia is growing...getting longer that is. We're struggling to get her to take a bottle so that R has a chance to rest. In the meantime, here's a picture of Lucia with her Pappy...

Lucia Caroline Dingo-Early

Lucia (pronounced Loo-shah) Carline Dingo-Early was born at 10:51 AM on September 11, 2008. We started the labor at home (about 27 hours worth) before finishing up at Columbia Regional Hospital. You can read the birth story here.

In the meantime, watch her first music video...

The Nursery

The nursery is coming along. Here are a few pics to show the progress...

Ultrasound!

Here are the pics from this morning's ultrasound...which was ultracool! The kid was mostly in a position with its knees against the forehead. We joked that it was a yoga position of some sort, just like its momma.

The first image is of the kids face. R thinks it looks like me. What do you think?The next is a split-screen of the feet. One can see each foot pretty clearly on each side.
The third is an image of the kid with its hand to its mouth.Hopefully the next set of images will be little clearer and in full color. Expect those pictures around early September.

Offspring Update

We have a visit with the ultrasound machine Monday morning. So, there will probably be pictures of the fetus on this blog very shortly. Stay tuned.

In the meantime, we are now officially registered at Target and Babies-R-Us. It's mostly necessities, but it's a start. We also have an idea for the nursery (which Mom will be helping out with soon). It's taken from ReadyMade magazine and pictured below. (That's not our kid or our room.)
