He's growing well. Jesse weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces when we left the hospital Friday morning.
Today he weighed 8 pounds 8 ounces and he is 21.5 inches long.
He is healthy and plumping up very well.
He does have a severe case of baby acne and the beginnings of cradle cap.

We are well.

Jesse has completely turned into proper position after prayer on
Sunday, it took a couple of hours, he tucked his head and chin down and
now has his spine on my left side.
We went in Monday for our ultrasound and nonstress test. The ultrasound
indicated that the amniotic fluid surrounding him is getting low and
the placenta is aging. Baby looks well and he makes breathing movements
like normal for fullterm baby. His heart rate is a little faster than
it has been, but they are not concerned.
My blood pressure is high for me, but still "normal".

We have been scheduled for an induction Wednesday morning at 7am at
Presbyterian Hospital main downtown. The doctor said I could wait and
be monitored 3 times a week with more stress test and ultrasound to be
sure baby is okay, but Ronnie and I have decided to go ahead with
induction especially since we are overdue  and we don't want to take
chances of Jesse's health being compromised waiting on natural labor.
Our prayer is for a speedy uneventful delivery. We pray for the
induction to work so that surgical delivery is unnecessary. We pray for
God's hand on my and Jesse's health. We want to make it through the
induction without event.

I will try to update everyone as soon as possible. I will accept text
messages to my cellphone or calls if anyone feels God wants them to
pray with me or my husband Ronnie.

Please keep us in your prayers as the Lord leads and pray for peace and
good rest for me, as currently I am a miniature(haha) bundle of nerves.
I'd like to rest well tonight and go into hospital well rested.
