27 weeks
Here I am
Large and in charge at 27 weeks.

I cannot believe how big I am already.
It freaks me out to think that this babe has 12 more weeks of growing to do
which means I have 12 more weeks of growing to do as well.
yikes

Everything is going well with my pregnancy.
My doctor is still planning on performing a VBAC
(Vaginal Birth After C-section)
We talked about how he would like to start me by 39 weeks because it'll be best for the babe if my doctor can be in control of my labor.
I am so happy my doctor is willing to perform a VBAC 
that is if everything with my body is ready and "normal"

Everything else with my pregnancy is going as expected:
getting harder to chance Lincoln-man around
harder to bend over and pick things up
back ache
hard to sleep
hungry all the time
freckles are taking over my face
impossible to find anything to wear
tired
and feeling huge (did i already mention that:) )

We are getting so excited to meet this little (nameless) babe
I cant believe he'll be here in a few short weeks (12 weeks is classified as "short weeks")
We are preparing as much as we can for him to get here.
Lincoln-man will be starting to sleep in his big boy bed starting July 1st
The house is getting re-decorated, gutted, organized and cleaned.
His nursery will soon be updated and organized
and we are still trying to teach Lincoln how to be "soft"

And then I have my personal worries
I am trying to wrap my head around the idea of having a baby again which is 100% dependent on me
I'm trying to figure out how to care for 2 kids at the same time
I'm trying to still grasp the fact that my mom wont be around to help me out too.
I think that is my biggest worry of all.
yikes

All in all, we are ecstatic for this little dude to get here
