First Photos

Last week Jon and I had the thrill of seeing the bean for the first time. S/he is about 85 millimeters long and moved around the whole time. We clearly saw the heart beating. Amazing.

We got this body shot. The head on the left and the back toward the camera. The little butt and feet tucked under on the right.

The next one shows a close up of the bean's skull. The top of the head is on the right. The eye sockets clearly visible, nose and open-looking mouth. The white line with a little bend in it at the bottom going from right to left is an arm bone!
Wow!

O-Medeto Gozaimasu! Congratulations. This is certainly grand news. Just envisioning the eventual awesomeness of the inevitable "my mom works at a space travel supply store, what does yours do?" type of discussions. Take care, I may be by to visit sometime in June, er, I think.
