Week 28 Doctor Appointment...

So today, I ventured into my doctor's appointment thinking, only 6 more of these before the baby is born....wow! Crazy!! Don't get me wrong, they are always exciting and such a bonding time for daddy Sibert and I, but I am ready to not have to go to the OB for awhile.
The doctor did some measurements and took some very blurry pictures, b/c "Buddy" is too big to get a good look at this point. He weighs 3.5 lbs. already and the doctor stated his femur is "really long" we are about 2 weeks ahead of growth schedule. Makes me shudder thinking he has 12 more weeks to continue to thrive and grow inside of me (and apparantly the growing part has really just begun), then, I have to push him out...of a really smalll hole! Can we say OUCH!! I am excited to meet him, hold him, gaze into his innocent eyes. I am being vulnerable here, the thought of giving birth though makes me a little nervous, especially if he takes after his papa and is born a small giant!
