My tummy at 27 weeks!!!

So I am now definetly prego- people talk to my belly, try to touch my belly and comment on how big I am. Gotta love people. Well I figured I better get some pictures of this 'wonderful' time. I am not sure exactly why people love being prego....??? I know that it is supposed to be so awesome, but so far I am not a big fan. Don't get me wrong I don't hate it but I don't love it either. My favorite thing would have to be watching my belly move around (when I am not trying to sleep=) Kendall keeps asking how much bigger it is going to get??? Well we are only at 27 weeks so I think that whale Julie will soon be a blimp Julie.

She's gonna be a soccer player!

So Kyla's newest thing is to kick constantly, my poor tummy feels like a punching bag. She especially kicks if you touch my stomach: resting my arms on it will quickly start the kicking. The best is if Kendall puts his face on my tummy, he does it so gently but she will still feel it and kick him right away. He was amazed last night at how strong she is getting. We are thinking she is really either a) saying my belly back off or b) playing tag with us. Either way she is very active and alert (who would've thunk?). We are starting to realize just how close we are getting to 'meeting' her for the first time. I think I only have 12 weeks left at work, that seems sooo crazy. We are starting to get ready!! I am so excited to go shopping in Great Falls with Allie and Steve in a couple weeks. Hopefully we will find some good deals- any advice?
