As promised, I have posted the pics below from our appointment today. Charley looks perfect! And as the saying always goes, "mommies know everything", I was correct in the fact that Charley is a little larger than the average 2.5 lbs. She is actually about 2 lbs 12 oz., which is still in line with her being in the 60th percentile for her size. As long as she continues at the rate that she has been going, they predict that she will be no smaller than 8.5 lbs at birth. As most of you probably know, her Daddy was a 10lb baby, so her size is not the least bit surprising :) Her heart rate was about 140 bpm, which was music to mommy's ears. Please continue to pray for her (and her crazy mommy who can't seem to quit worrying about her).
This picture is a little scary at first, but it is actually her right in the middle of a yawn, it was so cute to see her sweet little yawn. But when we looked at the picture, we thought that it resembled this painting that I'm sure all of you have seen at some point. This is called "The Scream" by Edvard Munch. I hope that this is not an indicator of what Charley's intentions are when she finally gets here....again please pray for mommy and daddy ;)
This is her looking at you. If you look closely, you can really make out her face pretty well. She actually has her eyes open which is really neat to see. Looks like she might have her mommy's enormous eyes, or at least that is what Daddy thinks :)

She looks amazing! Isn't it crazy to see that little face?!?! You are in my prayers daily as well as Charley and Robert! Pretty sure the worrying won't end until we see those sweet faces in person and then new worries will replace those! Love you guys!
