Rocco's First Portraits


On Monday, I had another ultrasound to check on the location of my placenta and of course to check in on Rocco's growth! Rocco's measuring right at the 50th percentile at 14 inches and 4 lbs, but let's talk about how freakin' cute he is!! Look at that face...what's not to love about his nose, cheeks and lips?! And his tiny, daddy look-a-like feet are to die for!
Our precious baby Rocco...we can't wait to meet you.

acne (still!)
