A Glimpse of Baby


So today we got our 36 week checkup and got a sonogram!  Our baby is most definitely a boy and they took his measurements . . . the kid is already about 7 lbs 4 oz!  WHAT THE?!  I still have 4 weeks to go! After his measurements, the sonogram tech changed my due date to the 18th or 19th, but my doctor is stickin' with the 29th.  I'm hoping he'll come earlier!  The top picture is a frontal shot: you can see his chubbo cheeks and his eye and forehead.  The second shot is a profile in 3D of his eye and nose and mouth.  It was fun to get a little "preview" of the kiddo since he seems to take up all of me! 

OH! In other news, we have finally moved out of our apartment and up to Amarillo. We realized how much junk we really have as it took 7 hours  and two trailers to get all moved out. Jon had 2 great friends who stayed and helped the whole time and Jon's sis and bro-in-law came and helped out a ton! We were so thankful to have such awesome friends and family willing to help out down here!  Our plan is to have the baby here in Amarillo and then mid July move to Houston.  Hopefully everything will go as planned!  People, get to praying that this kid comes at least a couple of weeks early!

7lbs 4oz! I say go with the 18th or 19th, that says that I go the 16th, although you could earn 10 bucks just by getting your kid out first. They checked today (37.5 weeks) and boy has dropped, cervix is squishy, dilated to 2 and nothing coming....I don't even want to get excited.

I AM STILL PREGNANT!!!
So I will be praying that you go early!
Can you please e-mail me your address so I can send you your "hooter hider"?

We are so glad you are here with us for a little while! I can't wait to meet the little bug in your belly and kiss those little cheeks. If he's anything like Sevy, you may just have to leave him here. I don't know if you and Jon can handle any more cuteness.

Early is good! I hope I go early but right now I am measuring small so we'll see. I'm so excited for you! Oh and address please? Now that you are settled for a little bit. :) Sure miss you and wish we were doing this together! I'LL PRAY YOU GO EARLY! Cute pictures by the way...it's pretty amazing what you get to see before they come. Lovs!

Oh man. I never say my prayers more than I do in that last month of pregnancy. Unfortunately, I only pray to go into labor - do you think that still counts in the "pray daily" department?? I've never been early (unless you count 1 day early). Hang in there. Pedicures, massages, and naps are your friends. :p
