BOY oh BOY


I had a follow-up ultrasound today to be certain a couple of minor issues were cleared up (and they were), so we were expecting a fairly routine visit. We were wrong. The baby is measuring larger than expected by a week and a half (more than it says on this photo) and by everything we've been reading, by more than 1 pound. They estimate he is about 3 lbs. 3 oz. today. I KNEW this was a big kid, but come on...
The theories? Either he's just a big kid or the due date is off and I'm still farther along than they thought. Maybe they'll think he should come out a little earlier and if it's safe and healthy, I'm all for it.
To top it off, they did a 3D shot because he was in a good position. The photos are always tough to see clearly (and slightly creepy), but this is his little face and he is sucking his finger (awww). It just made it all the more real for us and awfully fun.
