baby boy.

32 weeks actual gestation

measuring about 34.5 weeks 

weighing about 5 lbs 1 oz

looking cute as ever

with tons and tons of hair

and squishy chubby cheeks

he enjoys being breech at the moment

my fluid level has gone up a bit more

and i measure at 38 weeks

i seriously cannot believe i have a 5 lb baby in my belly. i was guessing he would be about 4.5 lbs. i was in shock today at my ultrasound, but very very very excited. 

i guess it is true about having children that are exact opposites. we can't get lyla to gain weight. she is a 20 lb, almost 27 month old. and has been 20 lbs since she was about 18 months old. this little boy on the other hand, is going to be a 10 pounder at birth if he keeps this up and is born close to 40 weeks. lyla weighed 10 lbs at 6 months.  i imagine him outgrowing clothes faster than i can get him to wear them, whereas each season i'm hoping lyla outgrows something.

this is a whole new road for us. 

this is his story though.
