Remember this from 2008?
"A few weeks back Shauna's doctor had the amazingly astute insight to inform her that her due date might be earlier because it appeared that "the baby is larger than expected". Really, doc?!! 8+ years of medical school combined with more than a decade of practicing your particular area of expertise and all you can come up with is that our baby is "larger than average"?!! I'm 6-foot, 8-inches tall and well north of 240 pounds so it would appear--in my less-than-expert-opinion--that you're not exactly predicting the 2nd coming of Christ.
What else do you have for me, doc? The 17 year old kid sitting next to me in the waiting room wearing the eyeliner and Marilyn Manson concert t-shirt might not be in it for the long haul with his "baby mamma"? Yao Ming might know his way around a pair of chopsticks? Bill Clinton might not have been completely forthright when he uttered the famous words "I have not had sexual relations with that girl".
My son will be big. Write it down. He also will not be a good dancer or listner and will frustrate the bejesus out of his mother with his penchant for finding his way into economy-size trouble while only being out of her sight for a few moments. What can I say? The nut usually doesn't fall too far from the tree...or grandtree. "

Well with that being said, I am now 29 weeks, this past week I went to the Dr. for my regular check up. During my regular check up the Dr. said that I am measuring a little above average. So we will see next week how I am measuring and we may get to see the baby again to gage his size. When she said he was measuring a "little above average" I said I've heard that before (nothing new to me). So, soon we can play the guessing game of how big this little boy will be, remember they said Connor was going to be 9 lbs and he was a peanut. Let's hope that this one is a peanut too.

As indicated by the blog post title this past weekend Connor had a busy weekend with Daddy while I worked our College graduation. Connor had a great weekend with Cliff and you can see by the pictures.

I just love the pictures of these kids reading their books!
What a boy!
Love Aunt Rita
Ha ha, love that post from 2 years ago!
The question is, will they both be able to bust a move...break dancin' style like their Dad? Those were some awesome moves at your wedding!
Oh, and my guess is 7 pounds 6 1/2 ounces. He will be a little bit bigger than Brother...let the competition begin!
Andrea -
You've got that right competition is the name of the game. We have lots of competition in the Owens household...just wait till the sports begin!
Shauna
I'm thinking 7 lbs. 11 ozs. At least I hope he won't be any bigger than that. Cliff was 8lbs.2ozs. but surely your second one will be smaller.
Loved the TV dinner pic. His Grandad eats like that all the time minus the highchair.
Love,
Gran
