Speechless

This is my (Ryan) first time posting in quite a while. All of you who regularly check this page out have my wife to thank for all of the updates. But here's my turn. We went back to Dr. Grieg today, and got our first 3-D ultrasound shots. And it absolutely stunned me. Here's a little sample of what we got to see. Alas, we only got to see one of our boys. The other was turned the other way, so we couldn't see his face.

Gives you a whole new sense of Psalm 139:

For you formed my inward parts;
You knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
My soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you,
When I was being made in secret,
Intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
In your book were written, every one of them,
The days that were formed for me,
When as yet there was none of them.

Seriously, that is breathtaking.

God sure is knitting together two fine looking young gentlemen. I'm surprised they don't come with bowties, though??

Amazing doesn't begin to express the wonderment of those babies! Becky, you look beautiful! Sorry we didn't get to see you over the holidays! Ryan, take care of her! I love you all!!

Ryan, that has always been one of my favorite Psalms. Amazing when you think of DNA, and how the strand is literally "knit together"...
