Baby Update....

With 3 weeks to go we (I) am getting very excited...a little too excited. My problem is that Max came 3 weeks early and I was hoping for the same with Baby Sister. It looks like that is a no go! I know it isn't real safe to have your baby come early but I really just want her now! Not to mention I have officially lost feeling in my right hand's fingers. The Doc says that it could be from swelling in my arm or a pinched nerve in my back...either way I can't do anything about it until the baby comes! Do you know how annoying it is to lack feeling in your hand. The other day my straightening iron started to fall-I caught it and as my pinkie (the only finger with feeling) wrapped around the iron I realized that I was being burned! Nice! I had burned my other fingers and not even noticed-at least they didn't hurt!


We had another ultrasound yesterday...Dr. Cruz wanted to check the baby's measurements. I also made the radiologist quadruple check the gender of "Baby Sister" (she's still a girl!) According to the Doc Baby Sister is already about 6 pounds 1 ounce! That is almost a half pound bigger than Max was when he was born! I know that sounds small but I still have 3 weeks to go! Yikes! Charlie's cousin Jamie was so thoughtful, she brought over a huge box of beautiful preemie clothes for us to use...it looks as if our chubby baby might not get a chance to wear them-which is good.


I thought I would attach a neat picture of Baby Sister-I can't believe how chubby her cheeks look! Max was never on the chubby side...I can't wait to pinch her legs-if her cheeks are that chubby I can't wait to see her legs. (That is my gene coming out!)


















Doesn't she look ticked-she doesn't look impressed at all! :)

I hear you about wanted the baby out. I had my girls 5 and 2wks early so of course Rocco was going to be early too. Happy wishes. He came 3 days late! I hope she is good to you and comes a little early for ya especially since you're loosing feeling in your hand. Yikes.

She is going to be so cute--you can already tell! I can't wait to see her in person.

Wow, she's going to be here so soon! (And yet I know it still feels like it's going to be forever!) You're going to have so much fun with your little girl and I bet Max is going to make a great big brother. Good luck with everything.

Jamie- Those pictures of your baby girl are amazing! Isn't just so cool what things we can do because of today's medicine and technology? I'm so glad we weren't having babies in the old days.
I am thinking of you and your family- hoping for a smooth and easy delivery.
Love you!
