Exactly What I Wanted to Hear...

Every once in a [long] while, it seems like you get lucky (so to speak)

and you get told EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR.

-

This morning, I had another ultrasound to try to nail down a

For-Real-Due-Date,

'cuz they keep telling me they can't tell if this baby's just big,

or if she should be due earlier than we thought.

-

I kept thinking, with my luck, they're gonna

end up telling me I'm due in July or something!

But no, today I was told Exactly What I Wanted to Hear:

-

The due date's officially moved back a couple of weeks!

Yay!

-

(In a funny sidenote, she's BIG enough to actually be due on the 11th (!!)

but they're sticking with May 16th. (Which means we're probably looking

at another 9-pound-one-million-ounces-newborn...)

-

Another sidenote: She's still a girl.

(Don't laugh- we had a "girl"

who turned out to be a "boy"

when he was born in our family...

I won't tell you which brother... for now...)

-

Another sidenote: Because she's like 31 weeks at this ultrasound,

I could see her VERY CHUBBY CHEEKS! and BIG LIPS!

And she spent much of the ultrasound chewing on her hands.

Awwwwwwwww.....

-

I'll shut up now.

Official date: May 16.
