Big fat baby, and VT....

So, today I started my weekly Dr Visits. With my history of having a stillborn, they wanted to do another ultrasound to check everything out. They said everything is great. That's good news. But, (there's always a but) they estimated the baby's wt to be 5lbs. I'm 34 weeks on wed. That's about 5 weeks left for this baby to grow before they induce labor. Umm...I think I'm going to have a big fat baby. When the Dr told me how big he is already, he asked me "Are you okay with that?". What do you mean am I okay with that? Do I have a choice? Or is there some sort of fetal diet I'm not aware of? Actually, I like fat babies. I'm just not looking forward to the actually birthing of a fat baby. Thank Heavans for epidurals! I guess if the worst thing they could come up with is that he's a fatty, I'll take it!
I'm a horrible Visiting Teacher. That's why I'm not going until today. I love the sisters we visit, and when I'm done, I'm grateful for the calling. But I don't enjoy visiting teaching. How horrible is that. One more area of my life that needs work. Add that to the list of thousands. Anyway, it's my turn for the lesson. It's titled "The Family Is Centra to the Creator's Plan". I don't know about you, but I always look at the message, then try to think of a cute handout. I always spend more time on the handout than the message. Horrible, I know. But, it gives me a chance to be crafy, and I love to be crafty!!! So, I had some little magnet frames that I got on clearance a few years ago, and then I went through all of my scrapbook/paper crafting stuff. This is what I came up with.

They are all different. They say "FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!"



This one is my favorite.

So, there you have it. My Monday. Hope yours was great!

I like fat babies, too. Especially when I'm not the one who had to birth them. My son had a 15" head. Seven years later, I still shudder:-)
