It's a little difficult to "name" the little one and slightly disconcerting to realize how attached we are quickly becoming--amidst the persistent worry that tugs on our hearts. Once we saw the little one's heartbeat last Friday we were instantly and completely in love and we pray daily that our baby is growing healthy and safe.
See that black circle in the middle? That's the water sack. See the little teensy tiny grain of rice in the upper right hand corner, between 1 & 2 o'clock? That's Lefty.

Why Lefty? Because I confided to Nate that I have this crazy notion that the embryo implanted itself on the left-hand side of my uterus, and so....well..."Lefty" stuck. No pun intended, 'though gladly welcome. (Grandpa Jarrell still prefers "Rice." "Sticky Rice"?? hmm....)
