Quality Time with The Bailey

Bailey is 29 weeks & 3 days old! We had our second ultrasound today to make sure Bailey is growing all right and all my measurements came back normal. I think, technically, she is measuring 3 days behind, but that's sissy stuff. They also said her estimated weight is 3lbs. right now, but bear in mind that these things can be significantly off too. Anyway, even though I'm not a huge advocate of excessive ultrasounds, it was nice to get to see Bailey this morning. She was kicking and squirming and hiccuping the entire time; she really gave the technician a run for her money. I love, love, love getting to see that swishy little heart beat and we got some great shots of her face and profile. From what I can tell, she looks like she has her Mama's nose and lips. The rest, we'll have to wait to see in January!

The rest of this week is going to be busy; the Moore family is coming in tonight and there'll be a steady trickle of family coming from all over for the Memorial on Friday. It's going to be nice to have so much family together and I know that was one of Grandpa Bob's favorite things too. Even though it's for a sad reason, I'd like to think it makes him happy that he's bringing us all together for the weekend.

I'm off to go make birthday cake. Angela just celebrated her 40th birthday yesterday and things like that just don't get to slip by unnoticed! I think the cake will mostly act as an apology for the harassment she's going to receive from John and Gary for turning 40, though. That's what you get for being related to the Schweighardts. Prost!

So, true about the harassment. I hadn't realized that she was turning 40! Craptastic!
