Due Date..let us hope

Well,
We went to the doctor on Tuesday and things are great. Miss Watkins is getting big. Dr. Russ did an estimated weight and height measurement and he says that she is at least 8 pounds...hello...!! Her height is at 41 weeks, meaning she might be a little tall. And everything else looks okay. He wasn't too happy with me for not coming in when I took my tumble down the stairs and basically said I was lucky nothing was wrong with the baby. Phew! We have a scheduled c-section for Wednesday June 7th (2 weeks early) but first thing that morning they want to do an amniocentesis to check the baby's lungs. If her lungs look mature enough then they will take her that day. if they look immature then they will wait a week. So, the Watkins house hold will have 3 girls by next Wednesday (we hope) Mom is going to take the girls the day we go in (thanks mom). We are delivering at Alta View again so everyone is welcome to come up and visit since I'll be there for 3 days.

Gracie is getting pretty excited as well. She said she had a dream that the baby had dark brown hair and purple eyes like her cousin Baylie. I thought that was cute. Baylies hair and eyes are very very dark brown is all. She is funny. She is doing a count down for this baby. 2 days with mom, 2 days with daddy, baby comes then 3 days with Grandma...I personally think she is more excited to sleep over at Grandmas than the baby. Well, that is all for now.
