Baby Update

We got to see the baby again on Tuesday (just one day shy of 34 weeks). The Dr. just wanted to make sure my placenta was well out of the way for delivery because at 20 weeks it was threateningly close to my cervix. All systems are go! Baby is measuring 4 lbs. 13 oz. (right on schedule!). We were able to see the face way better than the picture shows and I think it has Marshall's face shape and chubby cheeks... looks like we might get our little "Marsha" after all! Jesse says: "If it's a boy, it's the prettiest boy I've ever seen!"

Baby was being so cute during the ultrasound, sucking on it's fingers and sticking it's tongue out! We even got to count all 10 toes!


We couldn't find anyone to take the kids so we had all of them in that little ultrasound room... yikes! They didn't seem too interested in the baby up on the screen but Marshall did seem a little concerned that someone other than him was touching my baby belly.

Baby had hiccups on Monday and Cooper got to feel them, it made him giggle :)

I just have to last 6 more weeks and then I can hold little baby #4! (and find out if it's a boy or girl!)

Oh Laura! You should have called me! Next time I'd love to watch the kiddos while you go to the Dr (or anywhere!). What names do you guys have on the table??

I'm so excited for you! I can just imagine all of your kids in the room while looking at the ultrasound :) You're incredible.
