Ultrasound Update
December 3, 2008
I don’t know how to put pictures on this computer yet so the blurry photo of the photo will have to wait =)
We had another ultrasound yesterday for …baby girl -opps I almost gave away the name. The doctor had wanted to get another look at her b/c when we were in a couple of weeks ago I was measuring a little big -okay 4-6 weeks big and she was slightly on a diagonal so they wanted to be sure she wasn’t pulling any shenanegans. So at our ultrasound yesterday, we found out that she is currently about 7 lbs (we are 34 weeks which puts her in about the 84% -right in there with her big sisters), has lots of hair or more specifically long hair (both the doctor and the technician commented on how long it was), chubby cheeks, and we had them double check that she is a she -pink will indeed be the appropriate color to pack for the hospital. The amniotic fluid levels are appropriate and she is in the correct position. We are also tenetively set for another ultrasound just before christmas b/c they want to keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn’t get too big. So, I can now play name that bump with a fair amount of accuracy.
Ooh! And I’m so proud of myself, I took off my boots to get weighed b/c I’m pretty sure that boots are heavy enough to be considered cheating.

I’m happy for a good report! I do have to remind you that checking for shananegans was really not needed. As you know your kids all take after Brandon so they all pull shenanegans! You could have just asked me and I would have saved you that test.

Lauren beat out Erica by rounding -Erica was 9 lbs, 5.somthing oz which rounded down to 9lbs 5oz. and Lauren was 9lbs, 5.67oz or something like that that rounded up to 9lbs, 6 oz. All of my siblings and I were between 9#3oz and 10#3oz. However Brandon’s dad was 12 pounds! -no thank you.

OK, so now that you facebook, you don’t blog? What’s up with that? I like that I get the personal stuff from Linds still on the blog. I know you have a new baby and are probably sleep deprive, but I don’t know how much longer I can let this go….:) Love, Laur
