Wednesday, May 10th 2006!!!

Well, we are happy to announce that our due date has technically changed. Dr. Oliver decided today that he'd like to induce us NEXT Wednesday, May 10th!! We will go in for a final check up and report to Labor and Delivery on the 9th, and then Wednesday morning show up...and we'll be leaving with a little girl.

I had a sonogram today and she weighs approx. 6 lbs, 13 oz...so she'll be around 7 lbs next week. She is in position and ready to go.

We'll keep you all updated and informed as we get closer.

Please pray for all 3 of us as well as our families as we go through this new experiance. God has been SO faithful thus far and has answered our prayers, please keep us in yours. If you are looking for specific things to pray for it would be:
the umbilical cord not get wrapped (which today wasn't near her neck at all)
that she be positioned perfectly
for labor to go smoothly
Joe and I to have a peace about everything
and mostly pray for Ella's heart, as God prepares for her to follow him

Thank you to all who have loved, prayed, and supported us through this pregnancy, we're almost there!!

Love,
Joe and Andrea
