The Bailey Chronicles

Friday I had my 34 week check up. Everything looks good, but the baby is still measuring ahead. The new estimated due date is November 28th... black Friday! GREAT! I hope she is earlier or later than that, because that date is just not good for us LOL. Poor John, if she comes around that day he will feel so conflicted about his obligations as a store manager at Best Buy and his excitement about wanting to stay home with his first baby. So we pray that he is not put into that bind, and that he can enjoy this special time in his life without work robbing him of that joy. Her meaurements put her closer to 36 weeks and she is supposedly weighing 5 pounds 8 ounces. I am glad that she is healthy and growing like a weed, but at the same time it does worry me because I don't want to be pressured into an induction. I would prefer the birth to come naturally when she's ready. We'll see! This is her latest sonogram pic. I don't think the Doc is very good at them because this is the best one out of 15 if you can believe it. She really doesn't have duck lips, the doc said her hand was resting on her cheek so I guess that's her finger. This bottom one is her spine.

On Saturday we had the Dallas baby shower. My sister picked up a really cute cake from Sam's and Mom set up the buffet table. Fortunately it was a beautiful day because we held the shower outside by my apartment's pool.
