So this week the baby is roughly the size of a watermelon and it sure feels like it! While we are moving on Saturday and I would like him to stay put until then, he is free to come anytime after the 8th! I had my final growth check ultrasound this morning and everything is looking great. He was measuring exactly on target with a due date of 8/21 and was estimated to be approximately 7lb 2oz, which is wonderful considering that he was growing a bit "too fast" for my comfort a few weeks ago.
Needless to say we are quite excited about the house and to welcome this little guy home. Since I had to be induced with Hazel I am a bit on edge waiting to see when I go into labor and hoping I recognize it! I think part of it has to do with the fact that Marshall's work is 45 minutes away and I just want him to be here for the birth. Since the baby is measuring on target and the fluid looks good (our issue with Hazel last time was mainly low fluid) I am "free" to just wait and see when he arrives. We are definitely ready to meet our little watermelon and I know that Hazel will make a wonderful big sister :)

YAY for your little watermelon! Can't wait to hear about this little man!
Did you know that the Lloyd Bright family grew 2 world record breaking watermelons in the summer of 2005, with the largest weighing in at 268.8 pounds? Here's to little watermelons!
Hope the weekend went off without a hitch! Baby boy, come on down!
Congrats on the house. I know what you mean by not knowing what labor feels like. My water broke with Luke and then I never felt contractions until I got induced! I'm sure you will know and in plenty of time! Good luck can't wait to see pictures of the little guy!
Let's do it this weekend!! Yeah!!
