New due date for BABY!

Today we had another ultrasound to check on Baby. My suspicions were right on the money...Baby is breech (actually one foot down and one foot up), and apparently already approximately 6 lbs.! They did some measurements of the head and belly and both showed Baby's size was already about 3 weeks ahead of the original due date of 3/5. So, all of those factors combined are resulting in a scheduled C-section on...drum roll...
February 29th (LEAP YEAR BABY!)
We basically had our choice of dates anytime in the 39th week, and we chose that day based on the Doctor we wanted to do the delivery (it is the same one who delivered Kaleb).
We did good though and still held off on finding out the sex. It's great just to be able to know when Baby is coming exactly so the rest will be a wonderful surprise. At this point we just hope he/she is not too much bigger than the projected possible 9 lbs.!
Here are a couple of the pictures from today...first one is a profile view, and the second one is Baby facing the screen with the left side of the face showing. We have another ultrasound in 2 weeks so I will be back to post again with any new info.

Oh my gosh this is making me want to be pregnant and have anotber!! How adorable are the ultrasounds? We should all take a picture of one of our ultrasounds and a picture from the hospital when the baby was born to see the similarities! That'd be fun wouldn't it? Maybe it's the wine talking!!! lol Regardless so excited for you and Lou and Kaleb and baby!!!!
