Not so bad....maybe?

Hello there!

As many of you know, the building where I work has a women's center upstairs. Well, my friend Kate up there is an ultrasound technician. She has done many "fun" ultrasounds for me in between my official appointments this entire pregnancy. Well, yesterday, I asked her if she would mind measuring Ella Grace to see if she had continued growing at that blistering rate or if she had cooled it a little.

This morning, I got to see our little angel on the screen once again. I am officially 36 weeks today and she measured in at 36 weeks and 1 day. Her weight was estimated 6lbs 1oz and overall she is in the 40-50th percentile. She still has a big ol' noggin (70th percentile) that she definately gets from her Daddy. Well, I can say that I feel a little better at least for the moment. She is also head down and facing my spine (totally ready to make her debut). I do know that both estimates are probably really really wrong anyway, and probably totally irrelevant. She is as big as she is and we will not know how big that is until she is born. But, you know that I must find something to worry about.

I think that we are hanging in pretty well. I could use a little more sleep at night and a break from this backache, but for the most part I am good. I have big plans to pack my hospital bag this weekend!!! The nursery is set and ready for our little angel to come home. So exciting. We love you all!
