Our First Baby Class

Everything has been so busy around here lately. Last weekend Mama and I were in Simpsonville, SC to see Corri's band and colorguard compete at State. Her girls did an excellent job. Overall they placed second in the state, but the colorguard beat out the first place colorguard by 5 points. We are all so proud of her hard work with them.

Last night, my sweet daddy drove an hour to see Jason and I and then we had to rush out after like 20 minutes of seeing him to go to our first baby class. We had lots of fun at our class though. A pediatrician talked for about an hour about things we expect in the hospital and then immediately after we get home. She also talked about vaccines, feedings, etc. We were able to ask any questions that we may have. We also watched a video, changed a baby doll's diaper, and practiced swaddling the baby doll. Jason isn't sure if he has every changed a diaper before last night...I'm not sure that he has. He did a pretty good job with it.

We have another class on Saturday. This is an all day birthing class. I hope to learn lots of new information and not be freaked out. We'll see.

94th Percentile

Oh my gosh...I have a huge baby. We went to the doctor today. Will is measuring in the 94th percentile at 2 lbs. 14 oz. That is give or take 7 ounces. So he could weigh 2 lbs. 7 oz. or up to 3 lbs. 4 oz. The doctor said that if he continues to be this big throughout the pregnancy, he will induce me around 38 weeks. Wow!!! Other than that shocking news, everything is going well. I had my gestational diabetes test done today; I passed with flying colors. I also had my flu shot...no fun. We see the doctor again in 3 weeks.

Updates

Everything is going well with Will. He must be getting bigger because everyone says that my belly is getting even bigger. Jason and I have decided that Will is going to enjoy music. Last night we went over to some friends' house for dinner. After dinner Jason and the other guys were playing Guitar Hero. Will was dancing in my belly while they were playing. I have never felt him move that much. Again during church this morning he was moving while the congregation and choir were singing. I hope he gets Jason's singing ability...I love music, but I can't carry a tune.

We go to the doctor on Wednesday. I am sure we will have more updates then.

We promise to have pictures of the nursery furniture up soon. I have given up on putting pictures on this thing. I have had such a hard time with it, and Jason has been really busy at work (budget season). But, more pictures will be up soon.
