Ready, Set....BABY!

I went back into the doctor today for my 38 week check-up. Not much more to report, but I did ask him what the possibility would be to having Sawyer any earlier than next Monday.

He said he would check and see what he could do, exited the room for a couple of minutes, and came back in to say, "What about Saturday morning?"

Umm....YES, please!!! So, it's all set....Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m.

July 31, 2010 will be Sawyer's birthday unless something crazy happens between now and then. We are so excited to meet him, hold him, cuddle him, smell him, and kiss those sweet little cheeks!

So...here is my challenge to you all. I would love for you all to guess his weight and length. Obviously his time of birth will not be too much of a surprise, but I've been trying to guess myself as to how much he will weigh:) After he's born, we'll see who gets it right (or closest to right:)....

Jen's guess: 6 pds., 15 oz. -- 19 inches long

Jerrod's guess: 7 pds., 3 oz. -- 20.5 inches long

We covet your prayers as anxiety is running high these days. We are trusting the Lord that He has Sawyer in the palm of His hand, just as He does us. Many more pics to follow as we travel to the hospital, get ready for surgery, and of course see Sawyer's sweet face:)

Stay Tuned.....

For those of you who requested it, Cooper weighed 7 pds., 2 oz. at almost 40 weeks, and Tyler weighed 5 pds., 11 oz. at 36 weeks:)

  9. Haha! I wanted to know the birth weights of the other boys too, but I'm going with 6 pounds 10 ounces and 19 and 1/4 inches. You are just so tiny, he's bound to be tiny too, right? :) We are praying, "Do not fear for I am with you, do not be afraid for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you and uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isa. 41:10 Love y'all so much!
