17 weeks

I'm 17 weeks today! Baby is about 5.1 inches long weighing 5.9 oz, according to the books :) It's about the size of a pomegranate. I had my 16 week check up on Thursday, the heart beat was in the 150's and Baby K was moving around quite a bit.

The most recent food craving has been Italian sub sandwiches for some reason. This is a new one for me as I don't really like meat and haven't wanted to eat it almost at all since the beginning of my pregnancy. I still can't seem to eat enough fresh fruit. Cherries, grapes, blueberries, and cantaloupe have been huge on my list!

We enjoyed our first Red Rocks concert this week, Ryan Adams on Thursday night. The show ended a bit early due to a lightning and hail storm. We are excited for U2 tonight! Baby K will be exposed to lots of music through concerts and my teaching! We try to walk as much as possible although Piper is a bit of a struggle for me sometimes if Jeff isn't with.Walking near a tennis match or ball game is high risk with him!

We will find out the gender of Baby K on July 2! We thought we wanted to wait but decided we just can't do it. We know we won't be able to hold it in either so we really hope to tell as many of our family and long distance friends in private before celebrating with our friends in Golden that evening. Post your guesses! We both think girl and would be thrilled with either! I've had 3 gender dreams and it's a girl each time, although I don't have a strong enough feeling to say I'll be shocked if we're having a little Jeff :)
