New and slightly strange/surreal art for nursery.  I hope the words will inspire (something).

32.5 Week Hawk

Image
As Hawk gets bigger, the pictures are more tricky.  We had the "lame machine" again, so maybe that contributes.  Yes, that is the creepy little face of Hawk to the right.  The left is a mystery, we forgot what she told us it was and our imaginations don't take us to logical conclusions.  In other news, she commented on "the big head" (just want I want to hear) - it must be a Cerney!  Hawk is already at 4.5 lbs, and still 7.5 weeks to go!

Some wall hangings for Hawk's future nest (no foxes were injured) Mr. Flamingo Fitted sheets for the crib and the changing pad with one spare for each.  They look perty cute, but don't let that fool you.  The sewing went great... it was the cutting and measuring that went a little haywire. 

Pre-Hawk at 7months

So compared to our awesome 20wk ultrasound zeplin, our 28wk was a hissing balloon!  Just in the sense that we only got 2 pics and we think our ultrasound lady wanted to get the heck on with her memorial day weekend (or we might have been on a less fancy machine, she did mention that).  What you are looking at here are 2 face shots.  The first one I get... looks pretty cute!  The bottom one is a nose, cheek and lip, but I've been shown 4 times and still can't orientate.  One really cool thing we saw was the baby "practicing breathing".  The baby is breach right now, but plenty of time for it to turn around. In other news, don't know if it is the dress I am wearing or that baby, but I seem to be gaining some inches...
