Size Guess-timation Ultrasound

(This one is a side profile of his head)


(This one is a front view of his head - you can see his chin, lips and nose with a little hand off to the right)


Since I've been measuring a couple of centimeters over, and both Paul and I were big babies, they wanted to do an ultrasound to see how big Oliver might be. The measurements showed that everything from his feet to his head are large - but very proportional! They guess his weight is 8 pounds right now, but that is not very accurate (give or take a pound they say). On Thursday we will see what the doctor thinks about delivering this big boy!

Waiting for Baby


18 days left until little Oliver's "scheduled" arrival! Yesterday Paul installed the car seat, I set up the diaper changing station, and we finished the last of the baby laundry-we are truly ready to go! Now I can focus on getting some of our house packed and doing the fun preparations like working on the baby book and starting a new knitting project. I can't wait to see the baby boy who has been fluttering, jabbing, and now squirming inside of me for the past 9 months!!
