Alot of things have been going on lately. We had an ultrasound about 2 weeks ago that determined that I’m 2 weeks farther along than originally thought by my doctor (I knew I was off, but wasnt sure by how much). They estimated that she weighed almost 7lbs at that point. My new estimated due date is August 23rd, but everyone thinks she wont make it to that date either. I guess we will just have to wait and see when she is ready to come out. :) By my next appointment this Thursday, if she still hasnt come I was told they will want to have another ultrasoud to see how big she is. They will then decided if they want to go ahead and induce me so that I will have a better chance of a natural delivery rather than a c-section. No c-section talk has taken place, so I’m not too worried about that. but my doctor is worried that if she gets TOO big it will be very difficult for me to deliver her naturally.

We had two baby showers on saturday, and we got alot of great things. They were both very nice showers and we are very thankful for everyone who showed up to them. INSERT We have just about everything we need for her, except a few things. We still need to get some crib sheets (although she will be in a bassinet at first so its not a #1 kind of thing), formula (in case breast feeding is difficult or I choose not to continue with it), some kind of bouncer/gymboree/swing for her to play with, a dresser, and I think thats about it. We’d still like some other things as well, but I think those are at the top of our list… and they arent even things we HAVE to have. So that makes me happy.

We are excited for her arrival and cant wait to meet our little sweetheart. ♥
