Beginning of the End-Entering the 3rd Trimester

Whoa!! Looking at this pic makes me feel HUGE. But I know I've been terrible about taking pictures of myself through this, so I decided to show the world this week! This was taken at 27 weeks (last week). One thing I've learned is NOT to look at the scale during this time! It's frightening at this point:) And yes, I officially can clean out the interior of my belly button now because it's inside out!

I had another doctor's appointment yesterday & it was good to get some decisions made. We decided on a pediatrician practice & the hospital I'll deliver at. My doctor delivers at 2 hospitals in Fort Worth & I chose Harris downtown. My doctor said the staff, nurses, etc are top-notch and that's all I needed to hear. I am so thankful to have such an amazing doctor who helps me out with these big decisions!

I was supposed to have a sonogram to assess baby Luke's size, but Dr. Bradford measured me from the outside & said he is measuring perfect right now so she postponed it to 34 weeks. I'm sure by then I'll be anxious to see him again! Cody & I say every day now that we wish he was here already. Not that we aren't loving this time together, but it's hard not to get anxious about his arrival. I have to confess that I've already secured his carseat in my car & I'm getting anxious to have his bedroom in order so that I can rock in the rocking chair:) Maybe this is what people call the "nesting" instinct, but whatever it is, I'm ready for this baby! Only 12 more weeks left~yay!! I hope everyone has a fabulous 4th!
