Sweet Benjamin


We got to see Baby Benjamin via ultrasound again today. This was our 5th ultrasound of the pregnancy! It's been so amazing to see how God is growing him, and making him into a perfectly formed little baby!

This ultrasound was lots of fun! Benjamin was wiggling every where, making it somewhat difficult for the tech to get everything she needed, but not impossible this time. He gave us several sweet little profile shots. At one point, we even got to see him yawn, and try to suck his thumb!!

It looks like he's keeping up his trend of measuring big. According to his measurements, he is at 24 weeks, when he should only be at 22 weeks. We meet with the doctor next week to decide if we are moving my due date, or starting to plan on a big baby. He weighed in at 1 lb 9 oz, a whole pound bigger than the last time we saw him, only a month ago! At 22 weeks, the average baby weighs just under a pound.

Enjoy the sweet picture of Benjamin!

I think you just have to succumb to the fact that the Krajca's grow 'em big! Looks like the Jenkins's do, as well! Kade was 3 weeks early and he was still over 8 pounds! Either way, I know he has one of the best pair of parents ever!

Watch out for those big babies, Charla! They sure are cute though!

And thanks so much for the sweet comment! I guess even Curtis and I have glowing moments as parents. :-)

Wow! He is too sweet! I love the ultrasound photo! I also LOVE the name Benjamin and that was on our list for boys names. Very sweet. I can't wait to hear more!
