Baby update

I had another sonogram today because the last grouch didn't get a clear picture of the heart, so today's sonogram was especially for that. The woman today was so sweet and friendly, she actually did my first one at 6 weeks. She showed me everything and gave us some pictures. Manny (big) came with me and of course when she showed him the proof that it is a boy he had to have her print a picture of it. She was pushing down trying to get a good picture of the heart and the baby started kicking or pushing back at her. I started laughing because I knew what he was doing and she laughed too because she felt it. She said he is measuring bigger than 26 weeks 4 days, actually 27 weeks 6 days. That pushes up my due date to February 5, instead of the 15th. This is not going to work in my schedule. I plan on working up until the 14th so that I can have every extra day to spend with the baby...being that I won't be paid. Also my social studies classes are having special culture classes with a dance instructor coming in to teach them different dances. They they put on a performance for the parents after the 5th day. I can't miss that!! We figured it is at the end of my pregnancy and something easy for me to work with my last couple of days. We'll see, he'll come when he's ready. With Little Manny they thought he was big, over 9 lbs so my doctor induced me. When he was born, 3 days later he was 7 lbs. 15 oz.. I am thinking the same may happen for this little guy. I can't wait to see what he looks like, will he resemble his brother? Will he have all that hair too? Can he please have my green eyes? And like to sleep? I don't think that is too much to ask!!!
