2 weeks and counting

I just came back from a dr. appointment. My dr. is out of town but wanted me to come in to get my blood pressure checked and do an ultrasound. I'm happy to report that my blood pressure has not gone up since last week, so that is good news. When having the ultrasound done, the technician did a bunch of measurements and according to her calculations, Owen already weighs 6 lbs. 7 oz. I am SOOOO glad I'm not going all the way to 40 weeks. I'm afraid that if I did he would be a monster! Hopefully I'll get a nice 7 lbs. something oz. baby. I could even handle 8 lbs. I think. I just know I'm glad he's coming sooner than later. :)

In other news, my brother Jonathan is returning home from serving a two-year mission in Colorado. He comes home on Monday, Aug. 11th and I am SO excited to see him! While in Colorado he learned to speak Spanish (who would've thought there's a big Latin community in the cow country of Colorado?). We've all missed him like crazy and can't believe that it's been 2 years since he left home. We are all so proud of him and his dedication to serving the Lord. I am definitely going to relieve myself of full bed rest to see him at the airport. Wahoo!

More to come...
