27 Weeks Pregnant

Today I am 27 weeks 3 days pregnant. It's been a while since I've taken a picture and I thought it was about time. Random thought: I have this shirt in red and it was/is my favorite shirt to wear and I just happened to find the exact same shirt in black at the thrift store! I was really excited. 

Here I am barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen...

Here I am at 27 weeks pregnant with Peter. Again barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen...

You'll notice that I'm in the same spot for both pictures, but the picture taken today is a more green than before. :) 

I've determined that I'm one of those crazy women that actually enjoys being pregnant. I really don't get that sick during the first trimester (I feel a little nauseous with out actually getting sick) and I get my energy back fairly quickly during the second trimester. Now that the third trimester is creeping up on me I'm feeling great. I did have some joint pain in my hips and knees but I've been going to the chiropractor once a week and now my joints haven't really been bothering me. 

A few weeks ago I was stopped in Walmart by a cute little old man who told me that Peter was a beautiful baby and since I made such good looking kids I should have a dozen of them. This still makes me laugh. I was joking with Andrew about this the other night and I said that since I have such easy pregnancies and Peter was/is such a good baby (a good eater and sleeper) and we make cute babies, how would you feel about having a dozen kids? His response was, "I don't think I can afford twelve kids." He did say that the bonus of having 12 kids is that the oldest will probably be 24 when the last one comes and by then there's tons of other kids around to help with the younger kids. My main objection to having 12 kids is being pregnant and nursing for SO long, 9 years of being pregnant and 12 years of nursing. So I guess I'm saying who knows how many kids we'll end up having. :)
