6 lbs 6 oz

I think I am doomed to have big babies. I had an ultra sound yesterday to check on the growth of our little girl, and make sure that the placenta is still functioning properly. I was told that everything looks great and normal, however, she is measuring about a week ahead on her growth. She is 6 lbs 6 ounces right now, and I still have 4 weeks to go until my due date. If that is the case, and she continues to gain like she has been it means I will have a nine and a half pound baby! Not that a big baby is a bad thing if it means she is healthy, I was just looking forward to having a slightly easier delivery than last time.
Thayne and I had a wonderful weekend in Oregon with my family. It was so fun to see everyone again, I only wish we could have spent more time instead of feeling like we were rushing there and rushing back home. I have to say though, it was a wonderful way to spend my birthday. It is funny how it is with birthdays, they used to be such a big deal to me, and turning one year older was so important, but suddenly they just seem like mile markers, of wonderful memories from the past. To be completely honest, I don't feel any older or different than I did five years ago when I turned eighteen. Maybe that is how it is supposed to be. Now if I had just turned 25 like Thayne... That would be different; I am sure I would feel old then. (wink wink!) I love you Thayne!
