We had our sonogram this morning and Claire's estimated weight is 9lbs 14oz (+/- 23 oz). I think that means she's done cooking! We are hoping for the minus side of that estimate, but even so at over 8 lbs she's going to be a whopper. We are scheduled to head to the hospital around 6:30-7:30am to start getting set up for a long day of labor. I'm still hoping to have her the normal way, but today's news definitely increases our chance of having a C-section. Below are a couple of last belly shots. I didn't post any of the sonogram pics because they are really hard to make out since she is so big now. We did get to see her hands and feet (during a big punch) and she had the hiccups again. Everything else looked good too...4 chambers of the heart, spine, nose, lips were all beautiful. And she's still a girl. Other good news is that she is head down and the placenta and cord are out of the way, so she's in a good position. Also the amniotic fluid was still at a good level. I'm off of work today to start fluffing the nest and get ready for the big day tomorrow! Can't wait to finally meet her. :)

E was 9' 7" - I think the hospital gives you a t-shirt if you have a 9 + lb. baby ( :

I can't wait to meet my new cousin! And I am so happy to see that my giraffe quilt has such an honorable place in her beautiful room :). P.S. who won the "guess Claire's b-day" game at the shower?
