We're halfway done! I am also showing considerably compared to last month. I seemed to have "popped" out in the last few days. Peanut had its big scan today. Everything is normal and Peanut is growing according to schedule. However, Peanut was taking a nap and refused to turn during the scan so we have no nice profile photos to share, but we have posted two that are decent and they are below. Instead, we have two photos in which Peanut looks like Skeletor. For everyone who keeps asking about the gender, "No, we do not know!" We do not know for three reasons-- a.) it is illegal to learn the gender of the baby during an ultrasound in India, b.) Paul and I do not want to know, and c.) there was no way we could tell even if we wanted to during the scan. We will have one more scan at month 7 to chart the growth, and hopefully the baby will have more room in my tummy to turn a bit. . . it was pretty tight maneuvering inside today. Peanut did give us a thumbs up sign and wave during the scan.
This month has been pretty good. I am still feeling pretty energetic. No weird cravings other than beef and salmon....hmm....and Nutella sometimes! Ok, after many requests, here are the only two decent photos of Peanut from the ultrasound. Peanut sleeping from behind.
And Peanut laying with the face towards my belly. If Paul and I read this correctly, Peanut is going to have my large eyes and Paul's big forehead. ;-)

Yay, Melissa! Your baby bump is so cute. Glad to hear everything went well with the ultrasound. We go next Tuesday for ours--so exciting!
Skeletor! That cracked me up! And I'm shocked by reason A - I had no idea. That's interesting. My youngest sister is pregnant and they aren't find out either. You people make it very difficult for me to buy cute outfits ahead of time! :)
