The wait is almost over. We are 37.5 weeks pregnant and feel that now is the time to start the birthdate, weight, height, and hair color game for our new little guy.
Eli thinks that his little brother will weigh in at 9 pounds even, will be 22 inches long and have red hair. As for the date, Eli believes the baby will be born on his due date of April 4th.
Sam and I actually think this little man will come in at 8.5 pounds, 23 inches long, and have blonde hair. I think he will make an appearance on April 1, but I thought Eli would come early too and he was 15 days late (so much for mother's intuition).
We are excited and nervous and can't wait to meet our second little miracle. Eli will be a terrific big brother and we are practicing giving kisses and being gentle with a baby doll.
P.S. If anybody bets that this baby will be bigger than Eli's 9 pounds 4 ounces and he is, I will get even with you.

Eli at 15 months
"Such a sweet face"
"Eli on the go...in circles"
"Eli letting out a rebel yell"
Eli is 15 months old. At his check up he weighed in at 29.5 pounds (95%) and was 33.5 inches (off the charts as usual). In addition his giant brain has placed his head circumference in the 91%. He is just a big, sweet toddler. He is up to 15 plus words now and is on the verge of running (which makes his hugely pregnant momma very very nervous!).
As the birth of our new little guy approaches we look back over the past 15 months with Eli and cant believe how much he has changed from the squirmy baby we brought home on Nov. 30th, 2005. He is such a little man now and he is growing up so fast. Luckily, even though he wants his indepence for most things these days he is still the snuggliest little guy ever (takes after his daddy). And yes, this post is definitely the pregnancy hormones making my sentimental and sappy.
