Thirty-One

It’s now past our thirty one week period and the last stage of pregnancy is on its way. The once nervousness about the pregnancy has turned into anxiousness on preparing for our trip to Panama to be there for the delivery.

Last week we received a CD by Fed-Ex with our 3d ultra sound pictures, this was our first glance of what little Layton will look like. The previous ultra sound pictures were hard to make out and didn’t really look like anything to the untrained eye, but these new ones we received you could clearly see how far our baby has developed and what he is going to be looking like.

We are amazed now looking back on this past year how fast time has gone by, it was just about a year ago when we were booking our first flights for our first trip down to Panama to start this adventure and now one year later we are about to book our flights to Panama again to pick up our baby. What changes a year can make!

We have our last ultra sound on July 10^th, and at this time we will find out the date of our C-section and when we have to be down in Panama. We could have to be down there at the beginning of August depending on how far along the surrogate is, and anywhere between the 37^th to 39^th week of the pregnancy they could schedule it for. We believe it will be more towards the 37^th week so in a very short time frame we will be heading down south! As little as 6-7 weeks away!
