Delivery Date Set!

Well we had one of our last ultra sounds this week and baby Layton is doing just fine, and now weighing in at 4.1 pounds! The doctors are saying that everything is completely normal and have given us the date of the C-Section to be the 20th of August.
The doctors will do another ultra sound in two weeks’ time, on July 25th just to make sure nothing has changed and they will be able to see if the weight gain remains the same and will adjust the delivery date if need be.
We are finally at the time where all the final planning can be started; airline and travel arrangements can all be booked and completed. We are going to fly down almost a week before the delivery just to make sure we can get settled and situated with the area that we will be staying, and with deliveries you never know if the date will be bumped up or not, so better safe than sorry.
The amazing thing about the delivery date is that our first appointment with the hospital, which seems such a long time ago, was booked for August 16th last year, almost the exact date of when Layton will be born. Who knew at that time one year ago that we would actually be repeating our travel’s down to Panama to pick up our little guy….a lot can happen in just one year!
