32 weeks and 3 days!

Hello all, today we had our follow-up appointment with the high risk OB regarding the abnormal AFP blood levels (you remember, the one that had us all freaked out that baby AJ might have spina bifida) and AJ looks just perfect! oh glorious God! I really wasn't worried but it is always nice to have a specialist tell you all is well...

We got some bonus photos of dear AJ (thank you Amber for asking for them, they will be attached to this entry) and you'll see what chubby cheeks she has already! Today her belly measured 33 weeks 1 day and her femur 32 weeks 6 days.. so she is just a little ahead of schedule... she weighs 4 pounds 12 ounces and is 16 2/3 inches long.. she is in the 69% so we are fast on track for Dec 14! Amber is still uncomfortable but I think that is to be expected this far along.. keep her in your prayers anyway! :)
Here she is!! :)

One other bit of information is we found out Mitch is deploying for 6 months just after the new year and AJ's birth... Please keep both Amber and Mitch in your prayers and thoughts.. (as well Bailey and Meghan) I know it will be hard on them...

We have to decide SOON what AJ's "A" is going to stand for... We need to order her stocking (with her name on it) so I have given John and I until FRIDAY to decide... then let the embroidery ordering begin!! haha.. I have been putting this off for some time now and it is time to get the name on some cute items.. So look Friday for the news!

That is it I believe.. thanks for all your support and cheers! (as well prayers)
Much love to you all...
