It's the Final Countdown! (na na na nah, na na na na naahh)

Alise and I had an ultrasound this morning.

Mother and baby are both doing very well. The boy is now just over 5 pounds (which is about 7 dollars, for Americans), and he's in the 67th percentile, growth wise. That means that while he's big, he's not huge and he's developing nicely. The doctor even thinks that she saw hair on his head (curly, like his daddy) and he's currently taking the upside down position, his head is to the lower left of Alise's belly, his little arse wedging itself close to her ribs.

To be totally honest, this is all still a little surreal to me. If that baby were to decide to come out now, he'd likely be fine (albeit in the hospital for a while, no doubt). There is a living human being inside of Alise right now, her net total of legs is currently four. She has twenty fingers, two hearts, and one penis. Alise is currently making hair for someone else. It's all a bit strange.

But, this isn't going to last for much longer. We have less than seven weeks now until he comes out to join us. That's not long, is it?
