Growing, Growing, Growing

At 28 Weeks Pregnancy:

And in this corner, baby Settlemeyer, weighing in at a whopping 3.2 lbs

Yes Baby S is about a pound bigger than the average baby at 28 weeks pregnancy. The baby's head and length are measuring 2 weeks ahead, while the belly is measuring one week ahead. But for now the due date is staying March 23.  The nurse commented on the baby's long legs and said they'd probably do a couple more sonograms just to measure and watch his/her growth.  Even the baby's eye sockets looked large and it appeared he/she was wearing sunglasses.  I think it's safe to say that if I make it to March 23, I'm going to have another 8lb or 9 lb baby (and we dont even want to think about going over 9 lbs!)  I've put up a poll on the right to guess if Connor will have a brother or sister, so be sure to cast your vote!

Speaking of growing, I really think Connor has had a sudden growth spurt.  He has been eating non-stop and lately many of his 18-24 month shirts are too short on him.  He got to spend a few days without Mommy and Daddy in Livingston at Mimi and Papa Jud's and had a blast!! He is very attached to his Mimi and never even asked about his parents.  Here are just a few random pics of the past few weeks:

His new hiding place

Loves talking on the phone

As soon as I pull out the camera, he starts saying "cheese."

I thought this was too cute.  We were on our way back from San Antonio and both boys crashed.
