27 Weeks

At 27 weeks along, we only have 13 weeks to go.... whoa! My feet swelled up when I was in Chicago last weekend (ish!). Claire said her feet swelled from a flight while she was pregnant as well... I know they will not get back to normal until the little guy arrives...but it sure is embarrassing having these gigantic feet!

Next Wednesday we are having a second ultrasound...the woman that did our first ultrasound was Miss Crabby-pants U.S.A.! She told us (in her strong Russian accent) that our baby was moving around too much, making it difficult for her to do the measurements! Seriously?! I assumed someone in her position would understand that you can't tell a baby in the womb to hold still for a minute. When it was all over, I asked her if she was able to determine the gender and with her back to us she said, "yea, it's a boy." In my mind, I played it out that the person would say, "Congratulations! It's a boy!" or at least say it with some enthusiasm. So, they offered us a special ultrasound so we can just watch him move around and get some more pictures of him! Yay!

Nick is playing in a National Softball Championship this weekend in Bismarck, ND. I opted to stay home as Grandma Jean is coming up to keep me company and we will play with Claire, Hailey & Jacob!
