How Big??


How big will this baby get?  Now that I'm turning 36 weeks, it's anybody's guess, but I don't think she will be a premie size any longer.  With both previous pregnancies, the doctor predicted the babies would be 6-7 pounders.  They were born at 38-39 weeks and each weighed in at 9 lbs. 4 oz. respectively.   So does this baby have a competitive spirit, is that why she made it this far along in the pregnancy against the doctor's odds?  Maybe she also wants to weigh in at 9 lbs like her brothers!

Happy 6th Birthday Sam!


Sam was glowing from having all of his best friends attend his birthday at the park.  What a great group of families!  It's special to see Sam have so much joy from the simple things in life.  Afterward, Nanna and Papa Bales surprised Sam with an unexpected gift in our front entryway
.....his first 2 wheeler bike!
