We went to the doctor again today, and had our sonogram. The doctor estimated the babies weight by the measurements taken from the sonogram, and he estimated 8lbs 12 oz. He decided if the baby grew anymore, that they would have to do a C-section, so they are going to Induce her this Thursday with a sopository, the potosin on Friday if the pill didn't work. So if all goes well, we will have a new baby boy this weekend. It is definatley a boy we got to see it this time. We didn't get any pics on disk this time, so there isn't any to show sorry.
I ment to post the following before this post, but I will just attach it to this. The following is out of the book I am currently reading by Louis L'Amour - The Lonesome Gods. The two people talking are speaking of the oncoming War with Mexico and how Mexico had many thousands more troops than we had, and we only had 25,000 troops spread out over the whole US. I believe everybody in the US should read and understand this. It still makes sense in today world some 200 years later. I don't know the actual figures, but I know alot of the US troops today are spread out over the whole world. What would happen if we got attacked? How long would it take to get our forces back home to protect their homes?

"Will we be beaten?"

"I doubt it, Johannes. Our Constitution provides that no law shall forbid us from keeping and bearing arms because of the necessity for a militia. We have a militia of a sort, but our greatest strength lies in the fact that so many of our people not only possess weapons but also understand their use, and above all they are prepared to defend themselves against any sudden attack by an enemy. You will remember that we won our freedom because we were armed. We were not a simple peasantry unused to weapons. The men who wrote our Constitution knew our people would be safe as long as they were armed."

AMEN
