If you didn’t know we have definitely decided on the name Peter Michael Paladino. You can judge for yourself if you think the name fits since I had my 4-D ultrasound today. Unfortunately Peter Michael wasn’t feeling cooperative and was sleeping soundly, but we did get half a shot of his face. The other side is covered up with placenta. Also, with his position there was no confirmation that he really is a Peter Michael but we’re pretty sure from the previous ultrasound that’s what we have. And I just think he looks like a boy. There is a little bit of hair from what she could tell and it looks like he has big, full lips like his sister. His little face is literally about a centimeter from the outside of my stomach so the poor little guy doesn’t have much room. I guess that means I just need to work on gaining a lot more weight. Yea, I can have donettes again! I think he’s going to be a talker like his sister because he opened and closed his mouth a lot. He was probably telling us to stop poking his face.
Just to update you on his progress otherwise, I am 32 weeks and feeling pretty good. Peter Michael is pretty still as long as I’m up and moving about but as soon as I sit down to relax he gets very active. With Gabby it was mostly kicks and hits but with Peter it’s more like full body movement back and forth. It’s very strange when you can see rolls and jumps through my clothes. Like his sister, he loves our pastor’s voice. Or maybe he hates it but either way he gets very active on Sunday mornings and I’m sure gives the people around me a show. We’re planning on delivering in Bentonville since we’ll hopefully be moved when he comes.
Doesn’t he have sweet round cheeks (or at least one).
Eyes open here. Maybe I’m crazy but he kind of looks like my brother, Rob.

Mouth open. Look at those lips!
Eyes open again. It looks like he’ll have big eyes.
