Okay, not only did football season officially kick-off yesterday (YESSS!), but we also had another ultrasound! My mom, Matt and I all got to see our little sweetie again. She was apparently very tired yesterday, because she seemed to sleep through most of the poking and measuring. She did open and close her eyes for us a few times though Ü We also found out that she is head down, and face down and we will cross our fingers and hope she stays that way for the next 9 weeks. We don't want her coming out face up like Abbie and Holly! My poor sister... Anyway, like I said, our sleepy girl didn't want much to do with us as she kept her face hidden most of the time, but just as the tech said she was going to be "stubborn" and not let us see her face, she turned her head! Only for a few seconds, but long enough for us to get a profile shot, and to see her precious little eyes, nose, mouth, and chin! And then it was back to sleep. It was almost like she was saying, "Okay, you got your picture, can I go back to sleep now?" It was pretty darn cute Ü Based on all the measurements, she is approximately 3lbs 12ozs now, and growing more everyday! I've read that babies gain about 1/2 lb a week in the last 8 weeks, so I'll let you do the math! I can tell you that I've been feeling more hungry in the last week or so, and a lot more tired, so it makes sense that she's growing like a weed in there!
So back to football...well, sorta. I read this morning in FitPregnancy magazine that our baby is now about the length of...a football! If you know Matt at all, his response to this information was very appropriate and fitting of him! He said "That's right, Go Pack Go! That's what my baby girl is saying!" I wonder if I should tell him that she has a #8 Hasselbeck jersey on order... Just Kidding! I've already been informed that she will be a Packer fan like her Daddy...that's okay with me Ü
**Correction: Apparently, I'm a little behind. Looking at my magazine again today, I realized that our baby was the size of a football at 28 weeks...3 weeks ago!! Oops Ü
