Not yet........

Well.....the ultrasound went well today . The baby has gained some weight, and he now weighs 6lbs1oz. That now puts him in the 11th percentile (down from the 23rd percentile three weeks ago), so they have scheduled for us to be admitted to the hospital on Wednesday (6-13-07) at 7PM. They will then give Julie some medicine to thin the cervix and they will start the Patosin on Thursday (6-14-07) morning at 8AM if labor has not begun yet. The baby is still healthy as far as they can tell. All test show that he is still moving well, good blood flow, and they saw on the ultrasound that he was doing his practicing breathing so everything appears normal, he is just a small guy.

Julie is still feeling great and getting around very well. We went for a walk tonight, and are really enjoying our time together before the baby comes, but we can't wait to hold this little guy, and welcome him into our lives. His big brother Winton is also very excited, although his biggest concern is that he hopes the doctors aren't wrong about it being a boy.

Love to all!!

June 15th!!!! I'm so glad everything is going so smoothly and Julie's feeling so well. We'll definitely be thinking of everyone on Friday and praying for you!

These are my guesses (no specific reasoning)

1) Loves to jump out of airplanes – Julie
2) Had tonsils removed at age 25 – Lee
3) Allergic to cat's – Lee
4) Had Gallbladder removed on their birthday – Lee
5) Has traveled to over 35 states in the USA and has traveled to over 12 countries
outside of the USA – Julie

I had to pick Julie for the crazy wild stuff….I mean she’s shooting a huge rifle, what more can I say???

Also, depending on how everyone’s feeling after Peanut comes, maybe we could still get together in Chi town on July 28th? Keep us posted on peanut!!

Uncle Lee and Aunt Julie,

We were talking to our mom tonight and we were wondering what you are going to name our new cousin. We wanted to offer our suggestions. Ethan would like you to name him George and Kenna would like you to name him Eli - and later convinced Ethan that Eli would be a better name than George. We know you probably won't choose those names, but we wanted to help you out a little, if you needed it. We love you and are excited to meet him!

Love, Kenna and Ethan
