Belly and the Beard

Here you go folks, Mr. & Mrs. Smoochy at 37 weeks pregnant! The countdown to baby is officially under way. Now that Daddy Jacob is home labor can start any time. Sonny's due date is June 8th, but lets take bets! Don't all first time parents do this? Anyway, whoever guesses the closest date without going over (totally Price is Right style!) will win A NEW CAR! Noooo, will win... I don't know what you'll win but I think of something cool. OK, I'll guess first. May 31st! Here's to wishful thinking, right? OK folks, PLACE YOUR BETS!

The beard is so out of control! He looks like a civil war general. Oh well glad to see Jacob home safe.

Ok my bet is June 13th. It is also Cathy's birthday so who knows.

Oh my gawd I can't believe how long his beard is getting, I wonder what happened to the clean-cut navy man, I wonder if he will come back to visit Jacob sometime.
Miss you love you

Ok....it has been almost 11 years that Jacob has had to keep his face clean shaven due to regulation. NMMI and/or USNA was always the determining factor.
Granted I am just a sucker for a clean shaved face....but I suppose the "Grizley Adams" look is the best way to salute the years of no variance. I hope that he shaves before baby Jacob comes....I know very well that Dad Jacob will be getting close enough to smell the sweet breath of that new baby...without wanting to irritate his precious tender skin...will he shave when you go into labor????
Becca...your belly is delightful.
Is that the shirt we got for you in Topeka? As far as the due date..
I will go with June 10th...why not.
It's Uncle Marvin Sommers' Birthday, cousin Ambers' birthday and our baby Michael's birthday.
The count is down....yeeeeehaawwwww

I think the tradition of the 8th should be continued!

What a cute couple...if the beard kisses the belly it will tickle! (says she who remembers such things...)

I forgot to vote...and it will be totally arbitrary...since duedates are only "right" something like 1.6% of the time.

Based on being first baby, the activity you've mentioned and not knowing if you've found out whether or not you're effacing, etc. I am going to just pick:

sometime on June 6th.
