Meet Cade in 3D!

So we did the coolest thing and got a 3D/4D ultrasound done yesterday. It was so cool, we could see Cade's features and his extremely long body! He is 28 weeks and 1 day and he is measuring about the size of a 30 week old baby. His head is above average and his leg length is that of a baby at 31 weeks. He officially weighs in at 3 pounds 4 ounces. He has long legs, big feet, long fingers, it looks like nicks nose and my lips! He is a health boy! He loves to be very active all night and early in the morning. The whole experience was really cool, we had our family packed in the room and we all got to watch Cade in 3d for 20 minutes. He rolled around and grabbed his foot, he showed us his proof he was indeed a boy again and He yawned and stuck his tounge out and might have even flipped us off. It was really fun, i'm posting some of the 3d and 2d pics and then if i can get the video cropped down i'll put a clip of that up later too! Hope you all enjoy!

Nick's new tattoos!

These are nick's new tattoos! The one on his arm was done by our friend Tyler. It is a eagle wrestling a snake symbolizing victory over sin.
The one on his chest, the outline has been done for almost 10 years and he got it shaded and colored finally by the guy who started it years ago Scott Silvia.
Needless to say he is really stoked!

28 weeks = 7 months!

Hey everybody! So we have hit the 7 month mark! And i've learned some fun things...
-I have officially gained 10 pounds! YAY!
- Apparently as far as my eyes can see the bottom half of my stomach to my waist is pretty much invisible.
- my feet have grown 1/2 a size
- I have totally random crazy dreams
- I hardly sleep through the night
Other than that, things are going great and i'm amazed at how quick time is going by.
So here are our 7 month belly shots!

Baby Shower!

My sister threw us an awesome baby shower for all our friends here! It was fun and my friend Joanna made the most amazing cake!! Wonderful layers of chocolate amazingness! Here are a few pics from it and I'll have some more soon. It was fun, we had everyone bring their favorite children's book to give Cade instead of just regular gifts and we got some great ones!!! Nick has been practicing reading out loud to Cade and I at night, it is so cool!

Thanksgiving!

We had a great thanksgiving! We hung out with Nick's extended family. It was awesome Nick's grandpa said two things to me: "have you been eating green apples?" and "Stay out of prison". Not sure what either of those meant but it was memorable!

Nick ate stuffing for the first time in over 15 years. He had some traumatic experience with stuffing when he was younger, that left a poor taste in his mouth for years apparently. So big triumph for nick.

I on the other hand don't really like thanksgiving food so I ate a little here and there and was content. My favorite food was the clementines(little tangerines) that Grandma Hart had sitting on her counter. I ate like 3 or 4 of them. Yum!

Cade seemed to like the food. He wasn't any crazier than usual. He is an active little boy!

So the crisis(if you can even call it that) of the day was that at almost 7 months my regular clothes are starting to get tight and i haven't bought many maternity clothes yet so I was scrambling for something to wear. Nothing like last minute! :) But i had one pair of nice pants that still fit and one maternity shirt size small that worked well. Yay!

Here are a few pictures of us from thanksgiving:
