I saw this on one of my friends blogs and thought it was hilarious. Funny because it's painfully true and I'm DYING to have this kid or because it actually IS funny? I'm not sure!

We had an ultrasound done this past week to see how big our baby is and he weighed in at a whopping 6 lbs, 11 oz! I would put a picture of the ultrasound up but for the 3rd time all we got was a picture of his "manhood". I didn't think he'd appreciate having his "goods" broadcast online. He is headdown but he was turned on his side with his hands curled up by his face, so we have yet to see his beautiful face.
I am 38 weeks today, and had another doctors apt. and thankfully some progress is being made. I was dialated nearly 1 cm. and am 50% effased- not great but more than I was expecting. My doctor said that she'll check me again next week (Oh joy!-Whimper) and if I am completely effased and 2 cm then they will set me up to be induced. Oh course I want this to happen naturally and the baby to come tonight, but you know...! I guess only time will tell. Until then I'll have to join Josh in his work outs and see if running 20 miles a day does anything. =)

I can't believe it. Your gonna have a baby boy. Your gonna be a mama. They should induce you wether your fully efaced and dilated to 2 or not. I was induced at 39 weeks with my 2nd. Just cause I wanted him out. I'm so excited for you. Your gonna love mommyhood.

Okay Jena if you have the baby early, I will officially hate you forever...don't take it personal I was 2 weeks late w/ McKenzie:) Two days before McKenzie was born I had an ultrasound and they told me she weighed 9 lbs and some oz. She was 7 lbs 2 oz 2 days later. But good luck, it sounds like it will be soon!!!!!!!
