Baby Pool - What's Your Guess?

Everyone who wants to participate: Please leave a comment on this post with your guesses!!

This is a baby pool for everyone to guess when Reece will be born, and how big he will be. Leave a comment with your guesses and make sure to leave your name with it so I will know who you are! :)

Some hints: I went to the doctor this morning (Thursday)..I am 3 cm dilated, 70% thinned (effaced) and very ready!!! I am a little over 37 weeks pregnant. She said I could very easily go into labor this weekend..which would be great because I am ready and my doctor is on call!
Ryan was born at 39 weeks exactly, weighed 7 pounds 2 ounces and measured 20 inches.

At my 32 week ultrasound with Reece, he weighed 5 pounds and 1 ounce..and she said he was chubby! :)

I don't mean to brag, but for our baby pool guesses with Ryan...I was only 4 minutes off! I don't expect to be that lucky this time..and since I am the mommy, if my guess gets passed up, I get to guess again! :)

**My guesses for Reece: June 26 11:11 a.m. 7 pounds 7 ounces 20 inches

So it's your turn now! I am excited to see everyone's guesses!

Happy Father's Day














This picture was taken a couple of months ago of Ryan's first time on the boat. He was helping daddy put a fish back in the water.

Happy Father's Day to all of the dads out there! :)

It is hard to believe that this is Nick's 3rd Father's Day! He got to have a Father's Day with Ryan just a few weeks after Ryan was born.

Nick, you are such a great daddy to my baby and we are both so lucky to have you! Thank you so much for working so hard for us to be able to live the way we do. I love being able to stay at home with Ryan and I owe that all to you! I love you so much and Ryan does too! He looks up to you more than you even know..even at such a young age. Thanks for everything!

Dad, I want to wish you a Happy Father's Day today. Thanks for always being so supportive of me and everything thing that I want to do. I know that you will always be there no matter what I want in life and I thank you for that. You are a person that I can count on when I need something done a certain way..I know I can let you know what I want and that you will do everything you possibly can to make it happen! I love you!

To all of the other dads out there I wish you a Happy Father's Day! You are all special and a very important part of your kids' lives!

Who Am I by Casting Crowns

I guess I am getting into quotes..but this is one that I heard a while back, and heard it again this morning that I LOVE!!! Most of you have probably heard it...it is from a song called "Who Am I" by Casting Crowns.

Here it is:

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are

This brought tears to my eyes...

I was reading an email that my mom sent me just now and I actually sat here and cried...I immediately copied the quote that brought me to tears to post it on my blog.
Here it is:

Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle..


Even though pregnancy is so hard on me..and I am soooo ready for it to be over, this is so true!

I love both of my boys so much and I am so blessed that I have been able to carry both of them inside me as they grow!
