Okay, so based on your comments (thanks so much!), I've decided to stick with the doctor's original date of April 3, 2010. So, 199 days until the big day (or just the due date, 20% of babies are actually born on their due dates), we will be progressing (slowly it seems now) and rejoicing when my first trimester is over on September 26. I think we'll have to celebrate with a UT victory over UTEP! :)
Here are some cool things about April 3:
-It's one day before Easter in 2010
-President Truman signed the Marshall Plan in 1948, that's for the history buffs
-Martin Luther King, Jr. delivers his "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech
April 3 Birthdays:
-King Henry IV of England, born 1347
-Doris Day, 1924
-Wayne Newton, 1942
-Tony Orlando, 1944
-David Hyde Pierce, 1959
-Eddie Murphy, 1961
-Picabo Street, 1971
-Jennie Garth, 1972
-Leona Lewis, 1985

should we be hoping for an 04/04/10 baby? (to keep the memorable dates going- and Easter!)
When I was at the birthing center late Wednesday morning (09/09/09), the midwives were like, "It'd just be too perfect for you to have had a good night's rest, start labor mid-day, and have a baby on 09-09-09." haha! And she weighed 9lbs! I think Nick was hoping she'd be 9lbs, 9oz... but 9lb5oz was plenty big enough!!! ;o
