I had an ultrasound on Thursday because I've been measuring big. I was at 34 weeks this week. However, at the ultrasound, the technician measured me closer to 36 weeks. She said the baby already weighs 6.6 lbs. AH! I knew I was going to have a big baby! I go to the doctor's this Friday to find out if my due date needs moved up. The technician said my due date is estimated to be May 15.
Today we attended our first childbirth class at Akron General. We learned a lot about labor and delievery. We saw graphic videos of a few births that really just freaked me out. I'm a wimp! But, all the videos showed women who had natural births...why in the world would anyone put themselves through that is beyond Anson & I. Next week we go back and we're looking forward to the tour of the Maternity floor.
It's hard to see, but notice the precious little baton laying on top of this shelf. Given to her by my good friend and former majorette advisor, Jen Waybright. I love this special gift and can't wait to teach baby how to twirl!
We bought the shelves Friday night. Anson stained them and hung them in time for our company to see on Saturday. Grandma C. is making us curtains and a table drape for the stand where the TV is. We placed a blanket on the stand until we receive them.
Last night while we were showing Jill & Josh the nursery, Jill looked in the crib and said "There's a cat in there!" Peeve had claimed the crib as his new bed. It was really funny! And, Slater is usually seen lounging in the rocker.
Anson now has to share his closet. (Sorry Babe!) I love all the cute clothes we got at the shower last weekend. I'm just afraid she'll outgrow them faster than she can wear them all. Especially if she's a 9 pound baby!
