Baby Max 26 Weeks

Well our little bambino is doing great! His full name will be Maxwell Patrick Peterson. His weight is estimated to be 2 pounds, putting him in the 60th percentile (meaning he is a little bigger than average). His heart looks and sounds beautiful, pumping at a rate of 142 bpm. And as you can see below, he already has fat little cheeks! Lately, he has been so active. Sometimes I think he is awake more than he sleeps! And as you can see from these semi clear pictures, he was on the move during today's ultrasound.



Mommy is doing well also. I am starting to feel my range of motion is limited, lots of stretching pain, and uncomfortable nights. All joys of pregnancy! My weight gain is current about 17-18 pounds. Keep in mind, the picture below is after I worked a full day, folded laundry, and cooked dinner! Not too flattering :)
