Ultrasound Day

One more scottie painting:
I am not going to be winning any competitions with my sewing skills, but I finished my quilt. And from at least 4 or 5 feet away, it looks pretty good. Ha. Enough to make me proud of myself.

Back:
Now I start gathering fabric to start the boy quilt.

While I was sewing on the binding today the kids had a tea party. It was cute. Paige talks in an extra girly and fancy voice. "Would you like more tea, Cason?" He of course answers like she asked him to come hunting. "YEAH." They were both having fun, until a while later, when he was stealing cups and she was getting possessive. I heard them arguing, Paige said something and when I looked over Cason folded his arms across his chest and yelled "FINE!". Then Paige told him "I'm going to have a tea party instead of YOU!" and he shook his finger and said "NEVER NEVER." Haha. Pretty soon they were playing happily again. Right now they're at the picnic table, and Paige asked Cason "So what did you do today?" Then she told him "What I did today is get my makeup to put on me. All my kids were in Vegas."
We had an ultrasound today. I was really nervous she might confirm my fears that this baby is gigantic, but it was the opposite. She said it's not as accurate this late as it would've been if we'd had an ultrasound much earlier, but based on the measurements she got, the doctor COULD move our due date BACK, to November 1st. He may not do that, since we did have our ultrasound this late. I hope he doesn't, then I'll be less worried that I'm going to give birth to a 9 + pound baby. We'll see what he says at our next appointment I guess.

During the ultrasound Jess kept saying "HIS hand" and "HIS face". Ha. It'll be a girl just to surprise him.
We were trying to show Paige the baby's face, but she couldn't see it. I told her you can kind of see the baby's bones, like a skeleton. She goes "What's the skeleton baby doing?" Ha. If she DOES think I'm going to give birth to a skeleton baby, she didn't seem distressed about it.
I THINK he or she is sucking on a thumb (or whole hand) here.
Besides Jess, nobody slipped and accidentally told us the gender, thankfully.

I love the things that come out of Paige's mouth!! I can't believe they may push your due date back! Well no worries if it is 9+ lbs you can do it! My mom did it twice! oh yes and the quilt looks awesome! i love how you did the back!

The quilt is gorgeous, your baby is a lovely skeletor baby, and (on the bright side) I've heard maybe labor is easier if your baby is big... hahaha, crazy theory, we'll see. Hopefully you don't have to find out!

Haha. Well, Sarah I'll believe you that I can do it, then. But I'd rather not have to. Haha.

Thanks Megan! I hope that crazy theory works out for me. Cason was a pound heavier than Paige, and labor was faster, but I swore everything hurt more too. Ha. Who knows.
