A long overdue update!

Let's see, where to start. Well, first of all, Button is measuring ahead, by a good four weeks. And he has been for the past month. I've been getting ultrasounds every week since July 21st. And growth measurements are done at every other one. On 7/21, Button's estimated weight was 5 pounds 1 ounce. Then, on 8/3, his estimated weight was 6 pounds 7 ounces. Who knows what it will be on 8/17! I've also been going to my regular OB every week as well. The past two weeks I've had NST's done. So far Button has been a good baby and passed with flying colors.

It's beginning to feel more real or urgent, this baby getting here. I know I won't make it to my due date. The perinatologist has already said they won't let me go past 39 weeks. And due to the rapid growth of Button, we may have a baby in August instead of September. Who knows! The plan now is to do the growth scan on the 17th, then do an amnio for lung maturity on the 24th. Then I suppose we'll see where we stand then.

So, of course, will all of this speeding up (possibly) of Button's arrival, things have been hectic at home. Between my two (wonderful) showers and a massive shopping trip to BRU & Target, I think we have everything we need. Now I just need to get my heinie in gear and put things where they belong! I hope to have this completed by the end of this weekend.

Things have also been hectic at work. Let's just say, the person I've been training to do some of my duties while I'm out is a doofus. She has irked the crap out of me almost on a daily basis. For someone who is college educated with an accounting degree, she sure is stupid. I guess she didn't take any classes in common sense while in school. Some of my stories of her certainly warrant their own post. I may have to do that, but another day.

So, that's where things are now. As you can tell, a lot has been happening. I could promise to be a better poster, but I know I'll probably break that promise. Oh well!
