Baby O' Favry Update

Today we had a doctor's appointment and ultrasound to see our monkey, our chunky monkey!!! Based on the ultrasound they are estimating that the baby is about eight pounds NOW, so if I go full term he could be a 9lb butter ball. We shall see, the doctor didn't think he would be that big and ultrasounds aren't always accurate...we'll find out when he arrives I guess!

I don't have any good pictures to post as you wouldn't be able to tell what you are looking at, they aren't so photogenic at this stage, but we did get some good shots on the screen at the office. We got one good shot of his face and he has chubby little cheeks!! He was chewing away on something and waving his hands in front of his face. They also did some measurements of his stomach, bladder, heart, and bones, everything looks nice and healthy. The ultrasound tech commented on his fat little belly and chubby cheeks, I think that is why he put his hands in front of his face, he was embarassed and prefers the term " pleasently plump"

I go back to the doctors next week again to be checked, Fionna doesn't think we'll be meeting baby Favry before then, we'll see! She told me to just keep doing my exersizes to turn him over, he is half way turned, and to go for lots of walks.

Happy Thankspatrick ( thats what I used to call it) Day everyone. Anthony was a good irish by marriage man today and wore his green!!! I wish Nana C was around to make me a boiled dinner tonight with chocolate cupcakes with green frosting. We are having ham as Anthony doesn't like corn beef...oh well. Next year Nannie should probably start a tradition of cooking for her grandchildren on St. Patty's day like Nana C did.....

So glad everything is going well. Maybe Papa G can start a tradition and get Callum and Jackson down on Passover and make them potatoe pancakes and brisket.

jackson will definitely have the cubbiest cheeks in history.

like i told you before, the day before CS was born, they told us from the ultrasound that he was 6 pounds 4 ounces. Except when he was born 24 hours later, he had gained over two pounds.

So we'll have to see with Action Jackson

Can't wait to see Jackson and hold him. He will be just beautiful. I love chunky babies! Look at how good looking the parents are and I'm sure he will have the white teeth like his parents. Hurry up Jackson!!!! Grammie

Chubby babies are the best... I don't think you have to worry about anyone making fun of Jackson. I hope he has the chubbiest cheeks ever! Callum wants to grab them.
