We arrived at 10:00 am and they took us back to the u/s room. It was seriously one of the nicest ones I've ever been in. I got to lay on an elevated twin bed and they had room for up to 8 family members. The front of the room contained a sectional sofa, a bench and a 100-inch screen to view the images.
They also had something called "Sonostream". For anyone who wanted to view from home, they just logged onto their site and they could see everything we were seeing on the monitor.
We paid for a 30-minute session and it was a good thing because the babies weren't cooperating at first. Kendall kept facing my back and Christopher kept burying his face or hiding behind his arms.
I also quickly learned that it's already tight quarters in there. Christopher's butt was constantly in Kendall's face. At one point, she got fed up and stretched her legs out as far as they could go, pushing Christopher away and down. There's definitely some turf wars going on in there.
I wouldn't recommend doing longer than 30-minutes because I was ready for it for be over when it was. The u/s tech was very good but he was determined to get some good shots so he kept poking and pushing on my belly to get them to move out of their positions. The babies didn't seem to care but I sure was.
I'm really glad we decided to do it. It cost $250 and we got images of both babies. It included a CD with all of the images and a DVD video. We also caught some really cool things like Christopher yawning and Kendall smiling (picture below).
So, without further adieu, meet Christopher and Kendall.

Super cute!!! I'm having my 4d ultrasound next weekend and seeing these pictures made me even more excited for it. I can't believe how clearly you can see their features. Absolutely adorable.
Oh my goodness! There's no mistaking that smile, and what a beautiful smile--just warms your heart.
They look great. Nice photos for the album.

I saw your post on Andrea's blog about people asking "if twins run in your family", and I wanted to share my favorite response: They do now! (When delivered with a big smile, it shuts people right up.) After delivery, I said: They will soon.
Best of luck to you!!!
