Bashful Connor

Here is a funny story from our 4d ultrasound visit…

For nearly 42 minutes of the 45 minutes we were getting video of the ultrasound with Connor’s arm, hand, foot, and/or a leg in front of his face. He was covering one eye and sometimes both eyes. The ultrasound technician shook Victoria’s belly, pushed on Connor’s rear-end, and even gave Victoria a glass of water and 3 hershey kisses. Nothing could get him to move his arms away from his face. We all were getting a little tired (and maybe bored) seeing the same pictures over and over again.

Finally, my mom suggested that I tell Connor we were leaving in hopes that he would give us a glimpse of his cute face. I had tried to do a little father-son talk earlier but Connor didn’t want to listen (he was being stubborn like his mommy). 😉 Well, I think I was a little embarrassed from my previous unsuccessful attempt, so I decided not to give it another try. My mom suggested it again, but I just kind of shrugged it off. Well, she started to joke with us all and said, “Connor we are leaving. Connor we are all leaving now.” With only a couple of minutes left, the technician tried one more time to see him in 3D.

FINALLY, we saw his face without the arms and legs blocking our view! Everyone was thrilled and we got some great pictures of his face.

I warned Connor that Grandma can be sneaky like that. Grandma has been known to dress like Santa Claus and also to dress up like a ghost and horrify little kids. (Trust me, she horrified a certain little boy when she was “Casper” AND when she was Santa Claus.)

Well, here is a short video of the last 10 minutes (condensed into 7 minutes). Turn up your sound and have some patience for Connor’s debut. Around 3.5 minutes, you’ll see an unobstructed Connor.

Enjoy and we love you guys!

Donnie, Victoria, and Connor
