I'm in THIRD!!

Third trimester!!!  I cannot believe how fast this pregnancy seems to be progressing.  I went in for my very detailed sonogram on Tuesday and Mimi and Papa Jud accompanied us.  The baby did cooperate for the sonographer to get pictures down there while we turned our heads the other way.  (Well except for Papa Jud, but frankly I dont think he knew if he was looking at the foot or the ear so I think the secret's still safe.)  Whether we're having a boy or a girl, the baby looked perfect so there's not much more we can hope for.
We did get a few pics (all of the stomach up, of course) and a 4D picture which I think looks like Connor.  They gave us a video of the ultrasound, but I'm scared to watch it b/c I'm not sure if everything is included .  In other words, I don't know if it will reveal the sex.  So that will just be something we watch at a later date.

I am measuring two weeks early, which puts me at 27 weeks.  She said they won't move the due date up yet, but I guess we'll just wait and see what the doctor says later on.  The baby is also measuring in the 86%ile so it looks like we might have another big baby.  Of course given our genes, we're really not surprised.  Speaking of big, when I was pregnant with Connor we always joked about how big his feet were.  In fact, after he entered this world, the first thing the nurse said was "wow this boy has big feet."  Well as we're watching the ultrasound, the sonographer said "those are really big feet!"  Ha!! I guess with my size 10 feet, Josh's size 15 and Uncle Jason's size 17, we expect to have another big baby with big feet!

As far as I am concerned, I seem to be rocking along just fine.  Nothing exciting to report about, which again, am very thankful for!  I definitely feel like I'm much wider than I was with Connor, but maybe that's because there is now "more room" in there.  The baby likes to have a dance party often, and I love feeling him/her move around.  Here are some some pregnancy shots:
