Big ol' baby

We got a special treat today: we got another sonogram of lil' boy. It's crazy to see him growing, he's gained 6 ounces in the last 2 weeks, and according to the measurements on the screen they're predicting he'll be born October 31st (Halloween baby, yay!!) because he's so big. Granted, that's not too terribly far off from my original due date, so they'll just keep it the same unless he keeps growing like crazy. I'm curious as to how long he is, but that is hard to measure in utero because they're always so dang crunched up. He was all twisted like a pretzel, had one foot clear up by his head, and the other stretched out, what a weirdo! Speaking of feet, his are huge. Everyone that knows Kerry shouldn't be surprised, he's got ski-like feet, and I've even got decent sized feet for a girl. Oh boy, let's just hope he can stay in normal sizes. (This makes my dilemma of baby shoes even more complicated, who knew there were so many sizes for babies!!) We're excited he's big, everyone always teased that since we're so big we'd have a little baby, and that's definitely not the case. He's healthy and perfect, of course, and the doctor said we'll have a sonogram every 3 weeks until he's born to make sure he stays that way. =] (That's like, 6 more, yay!!) We got pictures and even video from the one yesterday, and we're going to the same office next time, so we'll get the same again I'm sure. The picture frenzy has already begun and he's not even here. =]



Hard to tell what it is if you don't know what you're looking for, but this is a front view of his head and belly. The dark places on his face are his eyes, so he's looking a little alien-like right now. We think he's pretty special, and already love him very, very much.

Group G
Xavier, Cullen, Anderson, Fletcher, Syler, Desmond, Dawson, Sawyer, and Dyson.

Group H

Jeez, from group G you can't tell we watch that much T.V. do you?!? ;] (Note: This is the last of all the groups, doesn't mean that all the names will be out but now they will at least be manageable.)

  1. I like most of the names in group G... if I had to just pick a group I would probably put my "vote" there. LOL @ tv though - they come up with some sweet names. Do you guys have any favorites you've picked out yet?

  2. Kerry started out in size 1 shoes...so he never was too little for shoes :D Braeden is still just in size 2 or "3-6" month shoes. No worries... I like some of these names...not telling which ones though ;)
