On Wednesday (Sept 26th), Richard and I took Becky to a baby reunion for all those who were in our Lamaze class. There were three classes there and everyone had their new babies with them. While we were going through our Lamaze class we filled out a prediction sheet about our babies. Each couple put down whether they thought they were having a boy or girl, what they thought the weight of their baby would be, and whether or not the baby was going to be early, on time, or late. Then, at the baby reunion, whoever was the closest would get a prize. Well, after signing in at the reunion and having some cake and punch, that was the first thing they brought up - the prediction sheet. And out of about fifteen couples, Richard and I had the closest guesses. We put down that we were having a girl, that we thought she would be 7 lb 4 oz and that she would be on time. And of course, everyone knows we had a girl, but as for the weight, we were only off by 6 oz and she was born right on her due date, so she was on time. It was pretty cool. So, we got a little door prize for that - an ornament for our Christmas tree this year.

After that, everyone was asked questions about their labors. How long, how short, how many C-sections, how long we had to stay in the hospital, and so on and so forth. I was in the top three for the longest labors. Hopefully next time I will be in the average or fastest section. One lady had a 30 hour labor in the hospital. I couldn't even imagine that. The shortest labor, though, was 25 minutes in the hospital. That was one lucky woman - and it was her first baby.

When the reunion was over we went up to say good-bye to Margo Bender and Rita Wooten (the Lamaze class teachers) and Becky got all excited and started making all kinds of little noises. They commented on how alert she was and what a happy and cute little baby she is. They just loved her - especially her chubby little legs. We will be going in for her four month doctor visit in a couple weeks and we will get to find out her weight again. We weighed her on a regular scale at a friend's house and she was about 13 or 14 pounds - but we'll know for sure in a couple weeks. She's just growing like a weed. =)
