only halfway?!

How is it that I'm only halfway through this pregnancy?!  July sounds so far away.  It is so far away!  I'm huge.  I know I think I've thought that with each pregnancy, but this one definitely takes the cake.  Let's just compare bellies at 20 weeks with Davis and now 20 weeks with baby numero 3.  (can't pull up my old pics from when I was preggo with Noah, but the belly was barely popping at this point when I was pregnant with him....lucky number one.)

I told Grant earlier, "I'm going to need you to take a picture of me to compare bellies at this stage and last time around."  He replied, "you sure you want to do that?"  Um, rude!

20 weeks with Davis

 (I had to put on the same shirt for the effect.)  :)

20 weeks with baby #3

Funny thing is too, you can definitely tell which one was taken during the beloved summer months.

So anyway, there it is.  The ginormous belly.  I don't even think this picture quite does it full justice in showing how big I really am.  Oh well.  

I go in on Tuesday for my actual 20 week ultrasound when they're really supposed to tell me the gender.  I still have this thought in the back of my mind that the ultrasound tech is going to tell me she made a mistake on the last scan and that we're actually having a boy.  So we'll see!

Also, the countdown to Hawaii begins!  I know it sounds snotty, but I am really dreading this trip.  We have two flights to make it to Kauai.  The first leg from Chicago to Honolulu is 9 hours straight.  With two busy little boys, and two of the loudest you've ever heard, this might just be a nightmare.  All I can hope for is when we get there, it's not a disaster trip like it was when we took Noah to Maui when he was 10 months.  I promised myself after that trip I would never go back to Hawaii.  Fingers crossed for some easy flights, good weather when we finally make it there, and two happy boys that have a great trip with mom and dad!  At least it will be warmer than it is here in Chicago!  Flip flops...here I come!  :)
